Juliana of Norwich: having all

Friday, May 8, 2015
    Feast of Juliana of Norwich, Mystic, Teacher, c.1417
Meditation:
    [Jesus:] “So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.”
    —Luke 11:9-10 (NIV)
Quotation:
    God, of Thy Goodness, give me Thyself: for Thou art enough to me, and I may nothing ask that is less that may be full worship to Thee; and if I ask anything that is less, ever me wanteth,—but only in Thee I have all.
    ... Juliana of Norwich (1342?-1417), Revelations of Divine Love, Grace Harriet Warrack, ed., Methuen, 1901, ch. V, p. 11 (see the book)
    See also Luke 11:9-10; Ps. 27:8; 105:3-4; Pr. 8:17; Matt. 6:33; 7:7-8; Heb. 11:6
Quiet time reflection:
    Lord, lead me to know You.
