The light to give you joy every day
I charge the sun, the blue of the sky, the light to give you joy every day.
Apparently there is nothing that cannot happen today!
Waiting patiently in hope and expectation is the foundation of the spiritual life.
To love is not a state; it is a direction.
The soul’s natural inclination to love beauty is the trap God most frequently uses in order to win it and open it to the Breath from on high.
Prayer consists of attention ... all the attention of which the soul is capable toward God.
Our soul makes constant noise, but it has a silent place we never hear. When the silence of God enters us, pierces our soul, and joins its silent sacred palce, then God is our treasure and our heart. And space opens before us like a fruit that breaks in two. Then we see the universe from a point beyond space.
The beauty of the world is the co-operation of divine wisdom in creation. All love of universal beauty proceeds from God dwelling in our souls and goes out to God present in the universe.
We must not wish for the disappearance of our troubles, but the grace to transform them.
