There is the story of St. Augustine’s death……….Augustine was one of the greatest leaders of his time. His writings expounded on the awesome wonders of God. His writings have been referenced for over a thousand years. One of his great works is entitled: The City of God.
On his deathbed, surrounded by his closest friends, as Augustine slipped away to be with the Lord, his breath ceased, his heart stopped, and a wonderful sense of peace filled the room. Suddenly his eyes reopened, and with his face aglow he declared to those friends, “I have seen the Lord. All I have written is but straw.” Then he left for heaven.
All I have written is straw………Augustine saw the Glory of God! ..and then said…….All I have written is straw.
Pray over those words, the life and words of St. Augustine. There is a message just for you in those words today.The Holy Spirit will show you.
from John Bevere’s book “The Fear of The Lord”, pg 21-22.
A message for America, a message for The World we live in.
