More quotes by Thomas a Kempis
Judge yourself and beware of passing judgement on others. In judging others we expend our energy to no purpose we are often mistaken and easily sin. But if we judge ourselves our labour is always to our profit.
Thomas a Kempis
He is truly great that is great in charity. He is truly great that is little in himself, and maketh no account of any height of honor. And he is truly learned that doeth the will of God, and forsaketh his own will.
Thomas a Kempis
Love is watchful. Sleeping, it does not slumber. Wearied, it is not tired. Pressed, it is not straitened. Alarmed, it is not confused, but like a living flame, a burning torch, it forces its way upward and passes unharmed through every obstacle.
Thomas a Kempis

Thomas a Kempis

Thomas a Kempis
Ah, Lord God, thou holy lover of my soul, when thou comest into my heart, all that is within me shall rejoice.
Thomas a Kempis
First keep peace with yourself, then you can also bring peace to others.
Thomas a Kempis
Man considers the actions, but God weighs the intentions.
Thomas a Kempis
For it is the grace of Christ, and not our own virtue, that gives us the power to overcome the flesh and the world.
Thomas a Kempis
Study, therefore, to withdraw the love of your soul from all things that are visible, and turn it to things that are invisible.
Thomas a Kempis
Do not let your peace depend on what people say of you... True peace and joy is to be found in [Jesus] alone.
Thomas a Kempis
Always be thou prepared, and so live that death may never find thee unprepared.
