Status Updates From Waiting for God

love her but i can’t cope with all this god related content i’m sorry

“We can never wrestle God too much if we do so out of pure concern for the truth. Christ loves that we prefer the truth to him, because before being the Christ, he is the Truth. If someone takes a detour from him to go towards the truth, they will not go a long way without falling into his arms.”

WOW! She is incredible. This one floored me: “Those who locate the absolute in pleasure cannot help but be mastered by it. We don’t struggle against the absolute. Those who know how to locate the absolute outside of pleasure possess the perfection of temperance.”

“The key to a Christian conception of studies is that prayer consists of attention. It is the orientation toward God, with all the attention of which the soul is capable. The quality of attention counts very much in the quality of prayer. Warmth of heart cannot compensate for it.”
