Love and Dread are brethren, and they are rooted in us by the Goodness of our Maker, and they shall never be taken from us without end. We have of nature to love and we have of grace to love: and we have of nature to dread and we have of grace to dread.

Pray inwardly, even if you do not enjoy it. It does good, though you feel nothing. Yes, even though you think you are doing nothing.

For our soul is so preciously loved of him that is highest, that it over-passeth the knowing of all creatures.

The ground of mercy is love, and the working of mercy is our keeping in love.

The greatest honor we can give Almighty God is to live gladly because of the knowledge of his love.

Where I say that He abideth sorrowfully and moaning, it meaneth all the true feeling that we have in our self, in contrition and compassion, and all sorrowing and moaning that we are not oned with our Lord. And all such that is speedful, it is Christ in us. And though some of us feel it seldom, it passeth never from Christ till what time He hath brought us out of all our woe. For love suffereth never to be without pity.

But for I am a woman should I therefore live that I should not tell you the goodness of God?
