Meister Eckhart Quotes

For God Does Not Give Us Anything In Order That We Should Enjoy Its Possession And Rest Content With It, Nor Has He Ever Done So. All The Gifts Which He Has Ever Granted Us In Heaven Or On Earth Were Made Solely In Order To Be Able To Give Us The One Gift, Which Is Himself. With All Other Gifts He Simply Wants To Prepare Us For That Gift Which Is Himself. And All The Works Which God Has Ever Performed In Heaven Or On Earth Served Solely To Perform The One Work, That Is To Sanctify Himself So That He Can Sanctify Us. And So I Tell You That We Should Learn To See God In All Gifts And Works, Neither Resting Content With Anything Nor Becoming Attached To Anything. For Us There Can Be No Attachment To A Particular Manner Of Behaviour In This Life, Nor Has This Ever Been Right, However Successful We May Have Been.
