Daily Word


Happy is that soul, which heareth the Lord speaking within her, and from His mouth receiveth the word of comfort.

Happy ears, which receive the strains of the divine whisper, and take no notice of the whisperings of the world .

Happy ears indeed, which hearken to truth itself teaching within, and not to the voice which soundeth without.

Happy eyes, which are shut to outward things, but are attentive to things interior.

Happy they, who penetrate into internal things, and endeavour to prepare themselves more and more by daily exercises for attaining to heavenly secrets.



Thomas a Kempis spiritual work
Of the Imitation of Christ
