Though we are in such pain, trouble and distress, that it seems to us that we are unable to think of anything except how we are and what we feel, yet as soon as we may, we are to pass lightly over it, and count it as nothing. And why? Because God wills that we should understand that if we know him and love him and reverently fear him, we shall have rest and be at peace. And we shall rejoice in all that he does.
–Saint Julian of Norwich (1342-1416)
As truly as God is our Father, so truly God is our Mother.
— Saint Julian of Norwich (1342-1416)
My own sin will not hinder the working of God’s goodness.
–Saint Julian of Norwich (1342-1416)
Love was without beginning, is, and shall be without ending.
— Saint Julian of Norwich (1342-1416)
God wants us to know that he keeps us safe through good and ill… We shall see God face to face, simply and holding.
–Saint Julian of Norwich (1342-1416)
And so our good Lord answered to all the questions and doubts which I could raise, saying most comfortingly: “I may make all things well, and I shall make all things well, and I will make all things well; and you will see yourself that every kind of thing will be well.”
–Saint Julian of Norwich (1342-1416)
