“All that is contrary to love and peace is of the Fiend and of his part.”

Our life is all grounded and rooted in love, and without love we may not live.

Prayer is a new, gracious, lasting will of the soul united and fast-bound to the will of God by the precious and mysterious working of the Holy Ghost.

Pray inwardly, even if you do not enjoy it. It does good, though you feel nothing. Yes, even though you think you are doing nothing.

Here saw I a great oneing betwixt Christ and us, to mine understanding: for when He was in pain, we were in pain.

If any such lover be in earth which is continually kept from falling, I know it not: for it was not shewed me. But this was shewed: that in falling and in rising we are ever preciously kept in one Love.

But for failing love on our part, therefore is all our travail.

Love was without beginning, is, and shall be without ending.

He [Jesus] did not say, ‘You will never have a rough passage, you will never be over-strained, you will never feel uncomfortable,’ but he did say, ‘You will never be overcome.

My, how busy we become when we lose sight of how God loves us.

The Lord looks on his servants with pity and not with blame. In God’s sight we do not fall; in our sight, we do not stand. Both of these are true, but the deeper insight belongs to God.

For we are so preciously loved by God that we cannot even comprehend it.

Our natural Will is to have God, and the Good Will of God is to have us; and we may never cease from willing nor from longing till we have Him in fullness of joy: and then may we no more desire.

The same ones you love will bring you pain.

One half of me is yours, the other half is yours, Mine own, I would say; but if mine, then yours, And so all yours.

You never understand anybody that loves you.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder.

There are as many forms of love as there are moments in time.

I’d rather be happy being myself than sad trying to please everyone else.

If I am only happy for myself, many fewer chances for happiness. If I am happy when good things happen to other people, billions more chances to be happy!

You are your choices.
