Anselm was a brilliant medieval theologian (circa 1000 A.D.). Google him later this week to read about his ontological argument or his work on the atonement.
But, first, in preparing your heart for worship, read these words that are nearly one thousand years old. Surely, they are needed as much today as in Anselm’s time.
Now then, little man, for a short while fly from your business; hide yourself for a moment from your turbulent thoughts. Break off now your troublesome cares, and think less of your laborious occupations. Make a little time for God, and rest for a while in him. (Anselm of Canterbury, A Scholastic Miscellany: Anselm to Ockham, 70, from Anselm’s Proslogion).’"
