To rest in Thee

In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. - John 14:2-3

Thou movest us to delight in praising Thee;
for Thou hast formed us for Thyself, and our hearts are restless till they find rest in Thee.
Lord, teach me to know and understand which of these should be first, to call on Thee, or to praise Thee;
and likewise to know Thee,
or to call upon Thee.

~St. Augustine of Hippo
