“And the Lord said, “I will cause all my goodness to pass in front of
you, and I will proclaim my name, the Lord, in your presence. I will have mercy
on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have
compassion.” Exodus 33:19
“The Highest form of
prayer is to the goodness of God…God only desires that our soul cling to him
with all its strength, in particular, that it clings to his goodness. For of
all the things our minds can think about God, it is thinking upon his goodness
that pleases him most and brings the most profit to our souls.”
Julian of Norwich,
quoted in Ann Voscamp’s “One Thousand
Gifts”, 2009 and Richard Foster, ed., “Devotional
Classics”, 1993
