Praising God All The Day Long

(St. Augustine)

“If you are singing a hymn, you are praising God. Then the hymn comes to an end, and it is time for a meal; if you keep yourself from overeating, you will be praising God. You go to your room to rest, and unless you get up with the set resolve to do something wrong, you will still be praising God. You go off to your business, and so long as there are no fraudulent dealings, God will be praised. Are you a rural laborer? Then be sure that there are no weeds left in the ground you are digging, and once again, this will be an occasion of praising God. Thus, by the innocence of your works, you will be praising God all the day long.”
~St. Augustine
