Good Pleasure of His Will


My mother found this quote:

"Grant me, O Lord, to know what I ought to know, to love what I ought to love, to praise what delights Thee most, to value what is precious in Thy sight, to hate what is offensive to Thee. Do not suffer me to judge according to the sight of my eyes, nor to pass sentence according to the hearing of the ears of ignorant men; but to discern with a true judgment between things visible and spiritual, and above all, always to inquire what is the good pleasure of Thy will."

~Thomas a Kempis

I think this is a beautiful quote. :) I used it in the bulletin the morning. ;)
