Let God work in you, give the work to God, and have peace. Don't worry if He works through your nature or above your nature, because both are His, nature and grace.

Do exactly what you would do if you felt most secure.

I tell you the truth, any object you have in your mind, however good, will be a barrier between you and the inmost Truth.

God is in all things, but so far as God is Divine and so far as He is rational, God is nowhere so properly as in the soul - in the innermost of the soul.

Everything is meant to be lost, that the soul may stand in unhampered nothingness.

God wants nothing from you but the gift of a peaceful heart.

For a heart to be perfectly ready it has to be perfectly empty. In this condition it has attained its maximum capacity.

This is my only and permanent complaint, that vulgar people, empty of the Spirit of God, want to judge solely by their human thinking what they listen to or read in the Bible, which has been pronounced and written by the Holy Spirit and in the Holy Spirit.

The price of inaction is far greater than the cost of making a mistake.

What our Lord did was done with the intent, and this alone, that he might be with us and we with him.

Only he to whom God is present in everything and who employs his reason in the highest degree and has enjoyment in it knows anything of true peace and has a real kingdom of heaven.

God expects but one thing of you, and that is that you should come out of yourself in so far as you are a created being made and let God be God in you.

Action and becoming are one.

The less you feel and the more firmly you believe, the more praiseworthy is your faith and the more it will be esteemed and appreciated; for real faith is much more than a mere opinion of man. In it we have true knowledge: in truth, we lack nothing save true faith.

And suddenly you know: It's time to start something new and trust the magic of beginnings.

As God can only be seen by His own light, so He can only be loved by His own love.

One must learn an inner solitude, wherever or with whomsoever he may be.

Become aware of what is in you. Announce it, pronounce it, produce it, and give birth to it.

Nothing is sharper than suffering, nothing is sweeter than to have suffered.

Nothing in all creation is so like God as stillness.

This then is salvation - when we marvel at the beauty of created things and praise their beautiful Creator.

Nature's intent is neither food, nor drink, nor clothing, nor comfort, nor anything else in which God is left out. Whether you like it or not, whether you know it or not, secretly nature seeks, hunts, tries to ferret out the track on which God may be found.

God is at home. We are in the far country.
