The ground of mercy is love, and the working of mercy is our keeping in love. And this was shewed in such manner that I could not have perceived of the part of mercy but as it were alone in love that is to say, as to my sight.

More quotes by 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
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
It is easy to understand that the best deed is well done: and so well as the best deed is done - the highest - so well is the least deed done and all thing in its property and in the order that our Lord hath ordained it to from without beginning. For there is no doer but He.
Julian of Norwich
For in every soul that shall be saved is a Godly Will that never assented to sin, nor ever shall.
Julian of Norwich
The love that made Him to suffer passeth as far all His pains as Heaven is above Earth.
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
That love of God is hard and marvelous. It cannot and will not be broken because of our sins.

Julian of Norwich
He that made all things for love, by the same love keepeth them, and shall keep them without end.
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
All shall be well, and all shall be well and all manner of thing shall be well.
Julian of Norwich
For we are so preciously loved by God that we cannot even comprehend it.
Julian of Norwich
Between God and the soul there is no between.
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

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
Our life is all grounded and rooted in love, and without love we may not live.
Julian of Norwich
God willeth that we endlessly hate the sin and endlessly love the soul, as God loveth it.
Julian of Norwich
