Works Toward the Good

(St. Augustine)

“There is indeed much done against God’s will by evil men, but his wisdom and power are so great that everything seemingly contrary to it, in reality, works toward the good outcome or end that he has preordained.”

“God accomplishes his good will through the evil will of others. In this way the Father’s loving plan was realized . . . and Jesus suffered death for our sake.”

~St. Augustine
