Meister Eckhart
And suddenly you know: It's time to start something new and trust the magic of beginnings.

Meister Eckhart
Let God operate in thee Hand the work over to Him and do not disquiet thyself as to whether or no He is working with nature or above nature, for His are both nature and grace.
Meister Eckhart
We are celebrating the feast of the Eternal Birth which God the Father has borne and never ceases to bear in all eternity... But if it takes not place in me, what avails it? Everything lies in this, that it should take place in me.
Meister Eckhart

Meister Eckhart
Only those who have dared to let go can dare to re-enter.
Meister Eckhart
To be properly expressed a thing must proceed from within, moved by its form: it must come, not in from without but out from within.
Meister Eckhart
As long as I am this or that, or have this or that, I am not all things and I have not all things. Become pure till you neither are nor have either this or that then you are omnipresent and, being neither this nor that, are all things.
Meister Eckhart
Grace pours all beauty into the soul ... The soul means the world.
Meister Eckhart
When I think of God's Kingdom, I am compelled to be silent because of its immensity, because God's Kingdom is none other than God himself with all His riches.
Meister Eckhart
I will be silent and will hear what God will say in me...If God wishes to speak to me, let him enter. I will not go out.
Meister Eckhart
There exists only the present instant... a Now which always and without end is itself new. There is no yesterday nor any tomorrow, but only Now, as it was a thousand years ago and as it will be a thousand years hence.
