“My spiritual life is... sometimes I have access to it and sometimes I don't. When I do have access to it, it's usually a sense of my understanding what the best course of action or the best thing for me to do. By best, I mean when I have a real sense of doing the right thing and doing good for people and the connected universe of everybody.” PeopleMeanRealSometimesActionSpiritualLife IsUniverseCoursesUnderstandingConnectedAccessBest ThingsRight ThingSpiritual LifeDoing GoodDoing The Right Thing Author:Al Franken

“Be patient with everyone, but above all with yourself. I mean, do not be disturbed because of your imperfections, and always rise up bravely from a fall. I am glad that you make a daily new beginning; there is no better means of progress in the spiritual life than to be continually beginning afresh, and never to think that we have done enough.” ThinkingMeanDoneEnoughSpiritualSpiritFallProgressPatientGladImperfectionSpiritual LifeNew BeginningsBe PatientDisturbed Author:Saint Francis de Sales
“If we would accept heaven's life, we need by all means to live in the world and to participate in its duties and affairs. In this way, we accept a spiritual life by means of our moral and civic life; and there is no other way a spiritual life can be formed within us, no other way our spirits can be prepared for heaven. This is because living an inner life and not an outer life at the same time is like living in a house that has no foundation, that gradually either settles or develops gaping cracks or totters until it collapses.” IfsWorldWayNeedsMeanSpiritualSpiritHouseHeavenAcceptingMoralDutyFoundationPreparedAffairSettlingCracksSpiritual LifeCollapseBe PreparedCivicsInner Life Book:Heaven and hell Source: Heaven and hell
