Beautiful Quotes From Thomas Merton

Thomas Merton was a monk who lived in the 20th century. He spent his monastic life living the gospels, studying eastern religions and doing interfaith dialogue with them. I share a deep connection with him even though I am too young to meet him in real life. ❤️🙏🏻

Perfect Humility

Only those who have been humbled by life

Will desire mercy

Those who don’t desire mercy will never receive it

We must abandon all pride and only strive for perfect humility

In this perfect humility we receive God’s grace

In this grace

God’s love lifts us up from humiliation into glory
