More quotes by Peace Pilgrim

Image
There is no glimpse of the light without walking the path. You can't get it from anyone else, nor can you give it to anyone. Just take whatever steps seem easiest for you, and as you take a few steps it will be easier for you to take a few more.
Peace Pilgrim
Image
Be willing to face life squarely and get down beneath the surface of life where the verities and realities are to be found.
Peace Pilgrim
Image
Do not believe in me or any other teacher, rather trust in your own inner voice. This is your guide, this is your teacher. Your teacher is within not without. Know yourself, not me!
Peace Pilgrim
Image
Before the tongue can speak, it must have lost the power to wound.
Peace Pilgrim
Image
All who act upon their highest motivations become a power for good. Know that every right thing you do - every good word you say - every positive thought you think - has a good effect.
Peace Pilgrim
Image
I walk until given shelter, fast until given food. I don't ask - it's given without asking. Aren't people good! There's a spark of good in everybody, no mater how deeply it may be buried. It's waiting to govern your life gloriously.
Peace Pilgrim
Image
I have faith that God will care for me, and God does provide my needs. I don't in any way feel insecure because I don't know where I will sleep at night, where or when I will eat next. When you have spiritual security, you have no more feeling of need for material security.
Peace Pilgrim
Image
Life is a series of tests but if you pass your tests, you look back upon them as good experiences.
Peace Pilgrim
Image
Life is like a mirror. Smile at it and it smiles back at you.
Peace Pilgrim
Image
I feel a complete protection on my pilgrimage. God is my shield. There are no accidents in the Divine Plan nor does God leave us unattended. No one walks so safely as those who walk humbly and harmlessly with great love and great faith.
Peace Pilgrim
Image
What people really suffer from is immaturity. Among mature people war would not be a problem - it would be impossible.
Peace Pilgrim
Image
Pure love is a willingness to give without a thought of receiving anything in return.
Peace Pilgrim
Image
Fountain of Love my source is in thee - Loving thy will my spirit is free - Beautiful day when all of us see - The hope of the world is Love!
Peace Pilgrim
Image
Religion is not an end in itself. One's union with God is the ultimate goal. There are so many religions because immature people tend to emphasize trivial differences instead of important likenesses. Differences between faiths lie in creeds and rituals rather than in religious principles.
Peace Pilgrim
Image
Few find inner peace but this is not because they try and fail, it is because they do not try. . . When your life is governed by the divine nature instead of the self-centered nature you have found inner peace.
Peace Pilgrim
Image
Anything you cannot relinquish when it has outlived its usefulness possesses you, and in this materialistic age a great many of us are possessed by our possessions.
Peace Pilgrim
Image
Religion is not an end in itself. One's union with God is the ultimate goal.
Peace Pilgrim
Image
You are within God. God is within you.
Peace Pilgrim

As I lived up to the highest light I had, higher and higher light came to me.

People see themselves as the center of the universe and judge everything as it relates to them.
