Fr. Ron Rolheiser, OMI

“Sanctity has to do with gratitude. To be a saint is to be fueled by gratitude, nothing more and nothing less.”

“Every choice is a thousand renunciations. To choose one thing is to turn one’s back on many others.”

“Faith is not a question of basking in the certainty that there is a God and that God is taking care of us. Many of us are never granted this kind of assurance. Certitude is not the real substance of faith. Faith is a way of seeing things.”

“We prepare to die by pushing ourselves to love less narrowly. In that sense, readying ourselves for death is really an ever-widening entry into life.”

“The incarnation began with Jesus and it has never stopped . . . God takes on flesh so that every home becomes a church, every child becomes the Christ-child, and all food and drink become a sacrament. God’s many faces are now everywhere, in flesh, tempered and turned down, so that our human eyes can see him.”

Meister Eckhart

God is at home, it’s we who have gone out for a walk.

If the only prayer you said was thank you, that would be enough.

God does not work in all hearts alike, but according to the preparation and sensitivity He finds in each.

What we plant in the soil of contemplation, we shall reap in the harvest of action.

The very best and highest attainment in this life is to remain still and let God act and speak in you.

Do exactly what you would do if you felt most secure.  

God is not found in the soul by adding anything but by a process of subtraction.

If you focus too narrowly on a single path to God, all you will ever find is the path.

And suddenly you know: It’s time to start something new and trust the magic of beginnings.
