Guidelines for Mystical Prayer Quotes

“We are afraid to trust ourselves to love. We do not really believe in God's groundless, unmerited, eternal love for us. This must be the rock, the solid rock beneath us. God loves me, not because I am good but because He is good. This conviction must be lived out at every moment of the day. God made me in order to give Himself to me, and He wants nothing of me, literally nothing, other than to let Him love me, let Him pour Himself out upon me in everlasting joy.”
― Ruth Burrows, Guidelines for Mystical Prayer

“Each of us has to look into our dark world, recognise the forces that bind us, the blind instincts, the compulsions which , though they give the illusion of power, freedom , adulthood, ensnare us.”
