More quotes by Thomas a Kempis
God deceiveth thee not.
Thomas a Kempis
Salvation by the cross. [Lat., In cruce salus.]
Thomas a Kempis
Love is swift, sincere, pious, joyful, generous, strong, patient, faithful, prudent, long-suffering, courageous, and never seeking its own for wheresoever a person seeketh his own, there he falleth from love.
Thomas a Kempis
For they truly know their Lord in the breaking of bread, whose heart within them so vehemently burneth, whilst Thou, O blessed Jesus, dost walk and converse with them.
Thomas a Kempis
Whoever strives to withdraw from obedience, withdraws from grace.
Thomas a Kempis
The more humble and obedient to God a man is, the more wise and at peace he will be in all that he does.
Thomas a Kempis
Restrain an inordinate desire for knowledge, in which is found much anxiety and deception. Learned men always wish to appear so, and desire recognition of their wisdom. But there are many matters, knowledge of which brings little or no advantage to the soul.
Thomas a Kempis
Do what lieth in thy power, and God will assist in thy good will.
Thomas a Kempis
Do not interfere when your opinion is not sought.
Thomas a Kempis
Of two evils we must always choose the least.
Thomas a Kempis
Oh, how swiftly the glory of the world passes away!
Thomas a Kempis
All is vanity but to love God and serve Him.
Thomas a Kempis
Peace and happiness are what you covet, but these are only to be obtained by labor.
Thomas a Kempis
Oh, how quickly the world's glory passes away.
Thomas a Kempis
To be able to live peaceably with hard and perverse persons, or with the disorderly, or with such as go contrary to us, is a great grace.
Thomas a Kempis
Thou art my glory and the exultation of y heart: thou art my hope and refuge in the day of my trouble.
Thomas a Kempis
If you bear the cross unwillingly, you make it a burden, and load yourself more heavily but you must bear it.
Thomas a Kempis
We usually know what we can do, but temptation shows us who we are.
Thomas a Kempis
Wait for the Lord. Behave yourself manfully, and be of good courage. Do not be faithless, but stay in your place and do not turn back.
Thomas a Kempis
Man sees your actions, but God your motives.
Thomas a Kempis
