God Quotes
-
The more a person loves God, the more reason he has to hope in Him. This hope produces in the Saints an unutterable peace, which they preserve even in adversity, because as they love God, and know how beautiful He is to those who love Him, they place all their confidence and find all their repose in Him alone.
Alphonsus Liguori
-

The pleasure and the love of God for His creatures constitute the original state.

He who knows that he possesses neither being nor act rediscovers himself in that original state of pleasure and divine love.
Abdelkader El Djezairi
