Pondering Tidbits of Truth
is my simple and inadequate way of providing nuggets of spiritual wisdom for
you to chew on from time to time.
St. Teresa of Avila
“The excessive
multiplication of vocal prayers (even aside from time of mental prayer) can
likewise impede growth. There are people who get into a set habit of adding
litany upon litany, devotion upon devotion, to the point where they leave
little or no time for God to give what He wants to give. They do not understand
contemplation, and they think that unless they are vocalizing, they are not
praying.”
(From Fire Within)
David Torkington
“… no matter how great a teacher or preacher you may be, no
matter how good you may be at explaining the faith to others, if you do not
embody what or whom you are speaking about, you will fail. And, worse than
that, you will positively give scandal as hypocrites always do."
(From Wisdom From the Christian Mystics)
St. Anthony Mary Claret
(From The Golden Key)
