Augustine and Monica

Description

He married the National Governor Patrick, who had completely different character from the Bible. He felt annoyed by the incessant prayer, found the philanthropic mood too, was unable to understand the mood of visiting patients and their patients. The Saint Monica faced this whole situation with prayer and struggling to raise two sons and a daughter with education and admonition of the Lord, despite the fact that her husband did not agree to the baptism of his children. The Bible does not resist the violent temperament and moral aberrations of Patrick. He knew that what is impossible with men, are possible from God. That & # 039; it was very discreet and patient.
