More quotes by Julian of Norwich
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.
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
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
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
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
Everything has being through the love of God.
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
Between God and the soul there is no between.
Julian of Norwich

Julian of Norwich
He said not 'Thou shalt not be tempested, thou shalt not be travailed, thou shalt not be dis-eased' but he said, 'Thou shalt not be overcome.
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.
