Thomas Merton

All that is done by the will of God in secret is done for His glory and for the good of those whom He has chosen to share in His glory.”

Thomas Merton
“It is the will of God that we live not only as rational beings, but as 'new men' regenerated by the Holy Spirit in Christ. It is His will that we reach out for our inheritance, that we answer His call to be His sons. We are born men without our consent, but the consent to be sons of God has to be elicited by our own free will.”

Chris Hodges
“Here's the real secret: you can fulfill the commands of the Bible better by falling in love with God than by trying to obey him. It's not that your obedience isn't significant or relevant; it's simply not the center of the wheel. No, the hub of your life is your relationship with God. Your behavior and obedience radiate like spokes from the center of your life and allow you to roll forward. When you try to make your eternal behavior the hub on which you turn, you get stuck. Forward motion must be fueled by love.”

“There is something magical and transformational about saying “yes” to God. When you take His hand, step out of that boat (your ordinary, comfortable life), and be brave. Instead of spending your lifetime living in fear and playing it safe, you boldly walk in obedience. God makes you brave.”

“Nasuprot tome poslušnost je tako ljupka! Sveti Augustin piše: "Gospodine, najbolji su tvoji sluge koji žele svoj život prilagoditi tvojim odgovorima, radije nego da prilagode tvoje odgovore svojim željama." Trebamo svoje živote uskladiti s Božjim naukom, a ne prilagođavati Božji nauk načinu na koji želimo živjeti.”
― Ignatius Mary, Pomozite sami sebi pa će vam i Bog pomoći
