Spiritual Life Quotes

The vigour, and power, and comfort of our spiritual life depends on the mortification of the deeds of the flesh... The choicest believers, who are assuredly freed from the condemning power of sin, ought yet to make it their business all their days to mortify the indwelling power of sin... Do you mortify; do you make it your daily work; be always at it whilst you live; cease not a day from this work; be killing sin or it will be killing you Picture Quote #1

For the current of our spiritual life creeds, rituals and channels that may thwart or help, according to their fixity or openness. When a symbol or spiritual idea becomes rigidly elaborate in its construction, it supplants the idea which it should support Picture Quote #1

Peace is something tangible. It silences the outgoing energy of the mind and feeds the aspiring heart. Peace is not merely the absence of quarreling and fighting. True peace is not affected by the roaring of the world, outer or inner. This sea of peace is at our command if we practise the spiritual life Picture Quote #1

The true task of spiritual life is not found in faraway places or unusual states of consciousness. It is here in the present. It asks of us a welcoming spirit to greet all that life presents to us with a wise, respectful, and kindly heart. We can bow to both beauty and suffering, to our entanglements and confusion, to our fears and to the injustices of the world. Honoring the truth in this way is the path to freedom Picture Quote #1

Our spiritual life is a life in which we wait, actively present to the moment, expecting that new things will happen to us, new things that are far beyond our own imagination or prediction. This, indeed, is a very radical stance toward life in a world preoccupied with control Picture Quote #1

It is the basic principle of spiritual life that we learn the deepest things in unknown territory. Often it is when we feel most confused inwardly and are in the midst of our greatest difficulties that something new will open. We awaken most easily to the mystery of life through our weakest side. The areas of our greatest strength, where we are the most competent and clearest, tend to keep us away from the mystery Picture Quote #1

The strength or weakness of a society depends more on the level of its spiritual life than on its level of industrialization. Neither a market economy nor even general abundance constitutes the crowning achievement of human life. If a nation’s spiritual energies have been exhausted, it will not be saved from collapse by the most perfect government structure or by any industrial development. A tree with a rotten core cannot stand Picture Quote #1

In the spiritual life, as in all organic processes, everyone has their optimum and it is just as harmful to go beyond it as not to attain it Picture Quote #1

Prayer is the pulse of the renewed soul; and the constancy of its beat is the test and measure of the spiritual life Picture Quote #1

Conversion is in its essence a normal adolescent phenomenon, incidental to the passage from the child’s small universe to the wider intellectual and spiritual life of maturity Picture Quote #1

At the back of our brains is a blaze of astonishment at our own existence. The object of the artistic and spiritual life is to dig for this sunrise of wonder Picture Quote #1

The inner attitude of the heart is far more crucial than the mechanics for coming into the reality of the spiritual life Picture Quote #1

We do not drift into spiritual life or disciplined prayer. We will not grow in prayer unless we plan to pray Picture Quote #1

That’s the whole spiritual life. It’s learning how to die. And as you learn how to die, you start losing all your illusions, and you start being capable now of true intimacy and love Picture Quote #1

Spiritual direction is an interpersonal relationship in which we learn how to grow, live, and love in the spiritual life Picture Quote #1

In Barack Obama, Democrats have put forth a man of strong religious faith who is comfortable connecting his spiritual life to his public role as a policymaker Picture Quote #1

Music is still part of my spiritual life. Sometimes I sing my prayers. When I get audiences singing, I hope I’m helping them feel connected to something beyond themselves Picture Quote #1

The Bible is ... as necessary to spiritual life as breath is to natural life. There is nothing more essential to our lives than the Word of God Picture Quote #1

What’s more important that spiritual life? It seems to me it’s the bedrock of everything essential about being human Picture Quote #1

I’m excited about the state of women’s spiritual life and interior life and who women are. I wish the political establishment would catch up, because we still don’t have equal rights in America Picture Quote #1

Waiting time is not wasting time. Waiting patiently in expectation is the foundation of the spiritual life Picture Quote #1
