When The Soul Wants To Experience Something

What Good Is It To Me That Mary Gave Birth To The Son Of God Fourteen Hundred Years Ago, And I Do Not Also Give Birth To The Son Of God In My Time And In My Culture? We Are All Meant To Be Mothers Of God. God Is Always Needing To Be Born.

When I Think Of God's Kingdom, I Am Compelled To Be Silent Because Of Its Immensity, Because God's Kingdom Is None Other Than God Himself With All His Riches.

And So, Too, I Speak Of Love: He Who Is Held By It Is Held By The Strongest Of Bonds, And Yet The Stress Is Pleasant. Moreover, He Can Sweetly Bear All That Happens To Him. When One Has Found This Bond, He Looks For No Other.

This Is My Only And Permanent Complaint, That Vulgar People, Empty Of The Spirit Of God, Want To Judge Solely By Their Human Thinking What They Listen To Or Read In The Bible, Which Has Been Pronounced And Written By The Holy Spirit And In The Holy Spirit.

Even Now One Rarely Hears Of People Achieving Great Things Unless They First Stumble In Some Respect.
