For we are so preciously loved by God that we cannot even comprehend it.
God loved us before he made us; and his love has never diminished and never shall.
Be a Gardener. Dig a ditch. Toil and sweat. And turn the earth upside down. And seek the deepness. And water plants in time. Continue this labor. And make sweet floods to run, and noble and abundant fruits to spring. Take this food and drink, and carry it to God as your true worship.
Pray, even if you feel nothing, see nothing. For when you are dry, empty, sick or weak, at such a time is your prayer most pleasing to God, even though you may find little joy in it. This is true of all believing prayer.
The fullness of Joy is to behold God in everything.
As truly as God is our Father, so truly God is our Mother.
Our life is all grounded and rooted in love, and without love we may not live.
Cheerful givers do not count the cost of what they give. Their hearts are set on pleasing and cheering the person to whom the gift is given.
God, of thy goodness, give me Thyself; for Thou art enough for me, and I can ask for nothing less that can be full honor to Thee. And if I ask anything that is less, ever Shall I be in want, for only in Thee have I all.
Truth sees God, and wisdom contemplates God, and from these two comes a third, a holy and wonderful delight in God, who is love.
Between God and the soul there is no between.
The fruit and the purpose of prayer is to be oned with and like God in all things.
Peace and love are ever in us, being and working; but we be not alway in peace and in love.
We are in God and God whom we do not see is in us.
That love of God is hard and marvelous. It cannot and will not be broken because of our sins.
Everything has being through the love of God.
In God’s sight we do not fall: in our own we do not stand.
Where do we begin? Begin with the heart.
Our Savior is our true Mother in whom we are endlessly born and out of whom we shall never come.
Prayer is the deliberate and persevering action of the soul. It is true and enduring, and full of grace. Prayer fastens the soul to God and makes it one with God’s will.
