You don't have to be peculiar to find God.
More Quotes from Evelyn Underhill:
After all it is those who have a deep and real inner life who are best able to deal with the irritating details of outer life.Evelyn Underhill
God is much in the difficult home problems as in the times of quiet and prayer.
Evelyn Underhill
Most of our conflicts and difficulties come from trying to deal with the spiritual and practical aspects of our life separately instead of realizing them as parts of one whole. If our practical life is centered on our own interests, cluttered up by possessions, distracted by ambitions, passions, wants and worries, beset by a sense of our own rights and importance, or anxieties for our own future, or longings for our own success, we need not expect that our spiritual life will be a contrast to all this. The soul's house is not built on such a convenient plan there are few soundproof partitions in it. Only when the conviction not merely the idea that the demand of the Spirit, however inconvenient, rules the whole of it, will those objectionable noises die down which have a way of penetrating into the nicely furnished little oratory and drowning all the quieter voices by their din.
Evelyn Underhill
Do not be scrupulous and think it selfish. You are obeying God's call and giving Him the opportunity to teach you what He wants you to know.
Evelyn Underhill
God is always coming to you in the Sacrament of the Present Moment. Meet and receive Him there with gratitude in that sacrament.
