The Healing of a bleeding woman (Catacombs of Marcellinus and Peter, Rome).
This is the paradox that God transcends the material world and, yet, has taken flesh among us. It is also the paradox of hunger, that God feeds us with God’s own self in the Eucharist and, yet, as human beings we continually hunger for the divine.
Claire Wolfteich, “Attention or Destruction: Simone Weil and the Paradox of the Eucharist”
“Jesus did not come to placate an angry God, to do the bidding of an inscrutable God, or to be a model of submission to a cruel God. He came to be the love of God; to show in our own ‘frail flesh’ not what God demands but what God is prepared to give.”
— John Barton, Love Unknown
“It is June. I am tired of being brave.”
— The Truth the Dead Know, Anne Sexton
Icon of Pentecost. Russian, 18th century. 53.5 x 45 cm. Private collection.
“If a tiny spark of God’s love already burns within you, do not expose it to the wind, for it may get blown out… Stay quiet with God. Do not spend your time in useless chatter… Do not give yourself to others so completely that you have nothing left for yourself.”
— St. Charles Borromeo (via eternal-echoes)
Matthew Quick, Forgive Me, Leonard Peacock
“Seek the Lord while He may be found, Call upon Him while He is near. Let the wicked forsake his way, And the unrighteous man his thoughts; Let him return to the Lord, And He will have mercy on him; And to our God, For He will abundantly pardon”
— Isaiah 55: 6-7 (via imintheleaves)
Yaa Gyasi, Transcendent Kingdom
“I am convinced that God loves each and everyone one of us with depth, persistence and intensity beyond imagination. God doesn’t simply like you. Nor does God simple have warm sentimental feelings towards you just because you were created in the Divine image. The truth is that God loves you with a “passionate absorbed interest.” God cannot help seeing you through the eyes of love.”
— David G. Benner - The Gift of Being Yourself (via hecallsmelovely)
“We live the given life, and not the planned.”
— Wendell Berry, A Timbered Choir
“It is always possible to begin anew, because there is a new life that God can awaken in us in spite of all our failures. From the rubble of our hearts, God can create a work of art.”
- Pope Francis

“Contemplation is finding the point in you where you are here and now being created by God.”
