When you find yourself in need of spiritual nourishment, it is in the opportunities to serve others that you will find the abundance you seek. ~ Steve Maraboli
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Steve Maraboli
Sometimes you struggle so hard to feed your family one way, you forget to feed them the other way, with spiritual nourishment. Everybody needs that. ~ James Brown
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by James Brown
Where will Christian feminists go for spiritual nourishment if the church itself fails to reflect the feminism of Jesus? If tradition becomes a reason for churches, for synagogues, for mosques to refuse to change in the light of new insights and understandings, on what grounds can we expect change from other institutions? ~ Joan D. Chittister
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Joan D. Chittister
Immersion in the scriptures is essential for spiritual nourishment. The word of God inspires commitment and acts as a healing balm for hurt feelings, anger, or disillusionment . When our commitment is diminished for any reason, part of the solution is repentance. Commitment and repentance are closely intertwined. ~ Quentin L. Cook
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Quentin L. Cook
Don't live a day without your spiritual nourishment; mediation on the word of God. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
Books are the food of the soul. Good and wholesome food given to a hungry body will nourish it, but if the food is poisonous, it will be injurious to the system. The same happens with reading. If people read good and instructive books at regular and proper times, it will strengthen and nourish them greatly. ~ Anthony Mary Claret
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Anthony Mary Claret
It's so funny being a Christian musician. It always scares me when people think so highly of Christian music, Contemporary Christian music especially. Because I kinda go, I know a lot of us, and we don't know jack about anything. Not that I don't want you to buy our records and come to our concerts. I sure do. But you should come for entertainment. If you really want spiritual nourishment, you should go to church ... you should read the Scriptures. ~ Rich Mullins
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Rich Mullins
This Bible, then, has a mission, grander than any mere creation of God; for in this volume are infinite wisdom, and infinite love. Between its covers are the mind and heart of God; and they are for man's good, for his salvation, his guidance, his spiritual nourishment. If now I neglect my Bible, I do my soul a wrong; for the fact of this Divine message is evidence that I need it. ~ Abbott Eliot Kittredge
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Abbott Eliot Kittredge
She had left his church and gone to the missionars, and there found more spiritual nourishment than Mr Cowie's sermons could supply, but she could not forget his kisses, or his gentle words, or his shilling, for by their means, although she did not know it, Mr Cowie's self had given her a more confiding notion of God, a better feeling of his tenderness, than she could have had from all Mr Turnbull's sermons together. What equal gift could a man give? Was it not worth bookfuls of sound doctrine? ~ George MacDonald
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by George MacDonald
In the Lord's discourse on spiritual nourishment, we hear Him says: "Do not labor for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to everlasting life." (John 6:27). He then continued by talking about the true bread from Heaven the bread of God, and the bread of life. (John 6:32-35). Here He appeals to the soul for its nourishment and our thoughts to the spiritual way so as not to occupy our minds with the body and its needs. ~ Pope Shenouda III Of Alexandria
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Pope Shenouda III Of Alexandria
Feelings are for the soul what food is for the body. ~ Rudolf Steiner
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Rudolf Steiner
Poetry and art nourish the soul of the world with the flavor-filled substances of beauty, wisdom and truth. ~ Aberjhani
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Aberjhani
Our spirits ... require nourishment. Just as there is food for the body, there is food for the spirit. The consequences of spiritual malnutrition are just as hurtful to our spiritual lives as physical malnutrition is to our physical bodies. ~ Dallin H. Oaks
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Dallin H. Oaks
Be unselfish. That is the first and final commandment for those who would be useful and happy in their usefulness. If you think of yourself only, you cannot develop because you are choking the source of development, which is spiritual expansion through thought for others. ~ Charles William Eliot
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Charles William Eliot
Addiction is the dominant form of a culture that suffers from a superficial spectacle and celebrity-connectivity at its center. It's a form of spiritual emptiness. ~ Cornel West
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Cornel West
In this world, it is not worth finding anyone's faults. One becomes bound (by karma) by finding faults. ~ Dada Bhagwan
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Dada Bhagwan
New Year's Eve is not about having a big party for me. It's a time of reflection, and I often go on spiritual retreats. ~ Monique Roffey
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Monique Roffey
Observers in the full enjoyment of their bodily senses pity me, but it is because they do not see the golden chamber in my life where I dwell delighted; for, dark as my path may seem to them, I carry a magic light in my heart. Faith, the spiritual strong searchlight, illumines the way, and although sinister doubts lurk in the shadow, I walk unafraid towards the Enchanted Wood where the foliage is always green, where joy abides, where nightingales nest and sing, and where life and death are one in the Presence of the Lord. ~ Helen Keller
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Helen Keller
Only when you are absolutely devoted to what you do, can you produce something significant in the world. ~ Jaggi Vasudev
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Jaggi Vasudev
Fasting, prayama (breath control), japa (repetition of a name of God or a short mantra), and study of scriptures are among the most common practices. At the mels one can observe other varieties of tapas: lying on a bed of thorns or nails, prolonged standing on one leg, lifting one arm for years till it is withered, looking straight into the glaring sun for long hours, and similar sportive feats. Many ascetics keep silent for years. This is one of the most powerful means of storing up spiritual energy. ~ Klaus K. Klostermaier
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Klaus K. Klostermaier
what is it with you and sunflowers he asks

i point to the field of yellow outside
sunflowers worship the sun i tell him
only when it arrives do they rise
when the sun leaves
they bow their heads in mourning
that is what the sun does to those flowers
it's what you do to me

- the sun and her flowers ~ Rupi Kaur
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Rupi Kaur
The natural world is a gift that we have the obligation to treasure and use carefully. It is our moral responsibility to protect it from damage, and to pass it on to our heirs in good condition. To do less is to dishonor the Giver and the gift. ~ Frederick Victor Grey Wymark
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Frederick Victor Grey Wymark
Spiritual evolution is part of every soul's destiny on Earth, and each soul grows and evolves at a different rate. You are right where you need to be. ~ James Van Praagh
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by James Van Praagh
One might just as well trust in the "good luck" of a rabbit's foot as to hope for spiritual benefit from a Catholic scapular, medal, crucifix, or relic of an alleged "saint." ~ Dave Hunt
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Dave Hunt
Italians in particular are seen as either benign and child-like (the sweet old nonna with her meatballs), menacing mobsters, or hyper-sexualized housewives and gigolos; the kind of nourishment I'm looking for doesn't lie in any of these stereotypes. ~ Christopher Castellani
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Christopher Castellani
James intentionally enlarges the scope of suffering when he writes, "trials of many kinds." By doing this, he invites those who experience depression to learn that, whatever the cause, depression will test our faith and serve as a catalyst for growth rather than a reason for despair. Yes, depression is spiritual in the same way that all suffering brings us face-to-face with critical spiritual realities. ~ Edward T. Welch
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Edward T. Welch
It is estimated over 80% of all illnesses today are spiritual in nature. ~ Johnny Hunt
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Johnny Hunt
Submission to God is praying with your knees bow. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
Without Pentecost the Christ-event - the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus - remains imprisoned in history as something to remember, think about and reflect on. The Spirit of Jesus comes to dwell within us, so that we can become living Christs here and now. ~ Henri Nouwen
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Henri Nouwen
The idea is not to regard the spiritual path as something very luxurious and pleasurable but to see it as just facing the facts of life. ~ Chogyam Trungpa
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Chogyam Trungpa
Spiritual Awareness is not gained through the use and abuse of drugs, it is only lost, and for just this lifetime but also for the next and future generations to come. ~ Richard Rensberry
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Richard Rensberry
The most important thing we can pray about for others is that they will know God better and that He will help them understand His will, grow in spiritual wisdom, and live lives that honor Him. We can pray that they will become more like Him and bear the fruit of His Spirit. ~ Stormie O'martian
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Stormie O'martian
Christianity was created by some decadent and degenerated Romans as a tool of oppression, in the late Roman era, and it should be treated accordingly. It is like handcuffs to the mind and spirit and is nothing but destructive to mankind. In fact I don't really see Christianity as a religion. It is more like a spiritual plague, a mass psychosis, and it should first and foremost be treated as a problem to be solved by the medical science. Christianity is a diagnosis. It's like Islam and the other Asian religions, a HIV/AIDS of the spirit and mind. ~ Varg Vikernes
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Varg Vikernes
Dreams are prophecies. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
Poetic Terrorism
WEIRD DANCING IN ALL-NIGHT computer-banking lobbies. Unauthorized pyrotechnic displays. Land-art, earth-works as bizarre alien artifacts strewn in State Parks. Burglarize houses but instead of stealing, leave Poetic-Terrorist objects. Kidnap someone & make them happy. Pick someone at random & convince them they're the heir to an enormous, useless & amazing fortune--say 5000 square miles of Antarctica, or an aging circus elephant, or an orphanage in Bombay, or a collection of alchemical mss. ...
Bolt up brass commemorative plaques in places (public or private) where you have experienced a revelation or had a particularly fulfilling sexual experience, etc.
Go naked for a sign.
Organize a strike in your school or workplace on the grounds that it does not satisfy your need for indolence & spiritual beauty.
Graffiti-art loaned some grace to ugly subways & rigid public monuments--PT-art can also be created for public places: poems scrawled in courthouse lavatories, small fetishes abandoned in parks & restaurants, Xerox-art under windshield-wipers of parked cars, Big Character Slogans pasted on playground walls, anonymous letters mailed to random or chosen recipients (mail fraud), pirate radio transmissions, wet cement...
The audience reaction or aesthetic-shock produced by PT ought to be at least as strong as the emotion of terror-- powerful disgust, sexual arousal, superstitious awe, sudden intuitive break ~ Hakim Bey
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Hakim Bey
Nur once heard it said that a woman's sphere is actually less constrained than a man's. Because whilst he may travel outside in the physical world, her internal world is limitless, set only by the boundaries of her imagination. This life within the mind is a skill that men do not always take the time to learn . . . unless, perhaps, they are of a particularly spiritual bent. ~ Lucy Foley
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Lucy Foley
faith presupposes reason and perfects it, and reason, enlightened by faith, finds the strength to rise to knowledge of God and spiritual realities'.15 For Ratzinger, faith and reason, theology and philosophy, are symbiotically, and not extrinsic-ally, related. Faith without reason ends in fideism, but reason without faith ends in nihilism. ~ Tracey Rowland
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Tracey Rowland
The most beautiful rainbow is the one inside your soul. ~ Matshona Dhliwayo
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Matshona Dhliwayo
Spiritual crises happen to us every day. Most of them are sufficiently low grade, devoid of enduring consequences, so we pay no attention and keep on rolling. A spiritual crisis occurs when our identity, our roles, our values, or our road map are substantially called into question, prove ineffective, or are overwhelmed by experience that cannot be contained by our understandings of self and world. ~ James Hollis
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by James Hollis
The intellect of most persons is harnessed by innumerable wants. Such a life is, from the spiritual point of view the lowest type of human existence. The highest type of human existence is free from all wants; and it is characterised by sufficiency or contentment. ~ Meher Baba
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Meher Baba
The spiritual kingdom of Israel, nevertheless, subsists not on ethnicity or family ties, but on faith. ~ James Mikolajczyk
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by James Mikolajczyk
What influence, in fact, have ecclesiastical establishments had on society? In some instances they have been seen to erect a spiritual tyranny on the ruins of the civil authority; on many instances they have been seen upholding the thrones of political tyranny; in no instance have they been the guardians of the liberties of the people. Rulers who wish to subvert the public liberty may have found an established clergy convenient auxiliaries. A just government, instituted to secure and perpetuate it, needs them not. ~ James Madison
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by James Madison
God gives us opportunity to serve him by serving humanity. ~ Radhe Maa
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Radhe Maa
See, when we say a "spiritual seeker," unfortunately most people assume that he is God-oriented. A spiritual seeker is not God-oriented; if Devil is the chief of existence, he wants to know that. We want to know what is true; we are not interested in proving our belief systems, because we don't have any. ~ Jaggi Vasudev
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Jaggi Vasudev
Understand the place of love in a spiritual life. A powerful and blissful type of love has no conditions, no ownership and no people involved. Be free from fear. Be who you are. That is love. ~ Ajahn Brahm
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Ajahn Brahm
There is nothing in the cosmos, either in the material plane or the spiritual plane which cannot be directly cognized. ~ Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
Spiritual Nourishment quotes by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
