DAY 272
The City of God
De civitate Dei
📌 ONE QUESTION FROM THE BOOK
Where should we place our hope when the world that seemed eternal collapses?
📝ONGO's Reflection
Reading this book, written amid the dreadful news of Rome's fall, I felt the vast vision of a philosopher confronting the despair of his age. Augustine insists that even if the visible earthly city collapses, the essential worth of humanity and the soul's purpose do not vanish with it. He shows us how to build an inner city that never trembles, even as everything around us crumbles into chaos.
