Meditation opens the doors of your inner treasures, what Jesus calls the kingdom of god. Meditation is only a key, and keys are always small things, but they can unlock immense treasures. Everybody is born as a prince or a princess, but gets lost in the blind crowd of beggars.

Our knowledge of Jesus is in need above all of a living experience: Another person's testimony is certainly important, as in general the whole of our Christian life begins with the proclamation that comes to us from one or several witnesses. But we ourselves must be personally involved in an intimate and profound relationship with Jesus.

I used to think I could learn about Jesus by studying Him, but now I know Jesus doesn't want stalkers.

The spiritual journey does not consist of arriving at a new destination where a person gains what he did not have, or becomes what he is not.

God’s priority isn’t your destination but your development. God’s priority isn’t the dream but the dreamer.

I was in my late thirties and decided my intention in life had nothing to do with the acquiring of material things, but rather it was now my intention to experience the evolution of my own soul and to grow spiritually.

And what I know now that I didn't know then is that's why I'm here.

The only way we can be of use to God is to let Him take us through the crooks and crannies of our own characters.

The revolution of Jesus is in the first place and continuously a revolution of the human heart or spirit...it is a revolution of character which proceeds by changing people from the inside through ongoing personal relationship to God in Christ and to one another. It is one that changes their ideas, beliefs, feelings, and habits of choice, as well as their bodily tendencies and social relations. It penetrates to the deepest layer of their soul. External, social arrangements may be used to this end, but they are not the end, nor are they a fundamental part of the means

It is not by change of place that we can come nearer to Him who is in every place, but by the cultivation of pure desires and virtuous habits.
