I have a capacity in my soul for taking in God entirely. I am as sure as I live that nothing is so near to me as God.
Meister EckhartGod is bound to act, to pour himself out (into thee) as soon as ever he shall find thee ready.
Meister EckhartA man should orient his will and all his works to God and having only God in view go forward unafraid, not thinking, am I right or am I wrong? One who worked out all the chances before starting his first fight would never fight at all. And if, going to someplace, we must think how to set the front foot down, we shall never get there. It is our duty to do the next thing: go straight on, that is the right way.
Meister Eckhart
