More quotes by Julian of Norwich
Because of the Shewing I am not good but if I love God the better: and in as much as ye love God the better, it is more to you than to me.
Julian of Norwich
See that I am God. See that I am in everything. See that I do everything. See that I have never stopped ordering my works, nor ever shall, eternally. See that I lead everything on to the conclusion I ordained for it before time began, by the same power, wisdom and love with which I made it. How can anything be amiss?
Julian of Norwich
Love and Dread are brethren, and they are rooted in us by the Goodness of our Maker, and they shall never be taken from us without end. We have of nature to love and we have of grace to love: and we have of nature to dread and we have of grace to dread.
Julian of Norwich
For we are so preciously loved by God that we cannot even comprehend it.
Julian of Norwich
As we know, our own mother bore us only into pain and dying. But our true mother, Jesus, who is all love, bears us into joy and endless living. Blessed may he be.
Julian of Norwich
But for failing love on our part, therefore is all our travail.
Julian of Norwich
Everything has being through the love of God.
Julian of Norwich
My, how busy we become when we lose sight of how God loves us.
Julian of Norwich
Peace and love are ever in us, being and working but we be not alway in peace and in love.
Julian of Norwich
Cheerful givers do not count the cost of what they give.
Julian of Norwich
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.
Julian of Norwich
Our life is all grounded and rooted in love, and without love we may not live.
Julian of Norwich
The fullness of joy is to behold God in everything. God is the ground, the substance, the teaching, the teacher, the purpose, and the reward for which every soul labors.
Julian of Norwich
God willeth to be seen and to be sought: to be abided and to be trusted.
Julian of Norwich
All shall be well, and all shall be well and all manner of thing shall be well.
Julian of Norwich
He shall appear suddenly and blissfully to all that love Him.
Julian of Norwich
It needeth us to have knowing of the littleness of creatures and to hold as nought all-thing that is made, for to love and have God that is unmade.
Julian of Norwich
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.
Julian of Norwich
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.
Julian of Norwich
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.
Julian of Norwich
