More quotes by Julian of Norwich
The ground of mercy is love, and the working of mercy is our keeping in love.
Julian of Norwich
Prayer is the deliberate and persevering action of the soul. It is true and enduring, and full of grace. Prayer fastens the soul to God and makes it one with God's will.
Julian of Norwich
But for I am a woman should I therefore live that I should not tell you the goodness of God?
Julian of Norwich
Anything less then God, ever me wanteth.
Julian of Norwich
Truth sees God, and wisdom contemplates God, and from these two comes a third, a holy and wonderful delight in God, who is love.
Julian of Norwich
God willeth to be seen and to be sought: to be abided and to be trusted.
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
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
The love that made Him to suffer passeth as far all His pains as Heaven is above Earth.
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
Our life is all grounded and rooted in love, and without love we may not live.
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
God willeth that we endlessly hate the sin and endlessly love the soul, as God loveth it.
Julian of Norwich
The Enemy is overcome by the blessed Passion and Death of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Julian of Norwich
When we, by the working of mercy and grace, be made meek and mild, we are fully safe suddenly is the soul oned to God when it is truly peaced in itself: for in Him is found no wrath.
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
For in the Third Showing when I saw that God does all that is done, I saw no sin: and then I saw that all is well. But when God showed me for sin, then said He: All SHALL be well.
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
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.
