“Now rejoice, all ye powers of my soul, that you are so united with God that no one may separate you from Him. I cannot fully praise nor love Him therefore must I die, and cast myself into the divine void, till I rise from non-existence to existence.” MaySoulDiesUnitedExistenceDivinePraiseCastsMy SoulVoidRejoiceNon Existence Book:Meister Eckhart's Sermons Source: Meister Eckhart's Sermons
“Ah, my brother, it is a far harder thing, and it is afar higher proof of a thorough-going, persistent, Christian principle woven into the very texture of my soul, to go on plodding and patient, never taken by surprise by any small temptation, than to gather into myself the strength which God has given me, and, expecting some great storm to come down upon me, to stand fast, and let it rage. It is a great deal easier to die once for Christ than to live always for Him.” SoulChristianDiesGivenChristDealsPrinciplesTakenBrotherGoes OnHigherEasierHarderSurprisePatientStormProofRageTemptationMy SoulMy BrotherExpectingPersistentTextureWovenThoroughAfar Author:Alexander MacLaren
“We laugh, we cry, we work, we play, we love, we live. And then we die. ... And dead we would remain but for one Man and His mission, even Jesus of Nazareth. ... With all my heart and the fervency of my soul, I lift up my voice in testimony as a special witness and declare that God does live. Jesus is His Son, the Only Begotten of the Father in the flesh. He is our Redeemer; He is our Mediator with the Father. He it was who died on the cross to atone for our sins. He became the firstfruits of the Resurrection. Because He died, all shall live again.” MenHeartDoeSoulPlayDiesFatherJesusVoiceSinLaughingSpecialCrySonMy HeartCrossesDiedMissionsFleshMy SoulWitnessLiftsLife And DeathOne ManResurrectionTestimonyCrucifixionRedeemerFerventMediatorsNazarethGreat Christian Author:Thomas S.

“I love, cherish, and respect women in my mind, in my heart, and in my soul. This love of women is the soil in which my life is rooted. It is the soil of our common life together. My life grows out of this soil. In any other soil, I would die. In whatever ways I am strong, I am strong because of the power and passion of this nurturant love.” WayMindHeartSoulTogetherLife IsDiesPassionStrongGrowsCommonMy HeartMy SoulSoilCherishRootedLife TogetherRespect WomenI Am StrongCommon Life Author:Andrea Dworkin
