Let Nothing Disturb You

Reflections for contemplative living

In an ever- changing world that preys on people’s fear and thrives in the sensational, do you find yourself grounded and letting nothing disturb you?

As we strive to understand and know love, we attach ourselves to God who lacks nothing. It doesn’t surprise me that we don’t know what love is as we are not taught to live our lives this way. Love of God is not merely devotion but it is the fervent determination to strive to please God in all things. In this love, we avoid doing anything that would offend and we pray for the increase of glory and honor of Jesus Christ in all the hearts of His people.

Let nothing disturb you, let nothing frighten you. All things pass. God does not change. Patience achieves everything. Whoever has God lacks nothing; God alone suffices.

St Teresa of Avila
