Spiritual Quotes

Man has been created to live in God. The icon of God is in us. Do not look for God outside of yourself. You will never find Him outside of yourself, because God is not material. God is not spatial. . . . You must descend in yourself to find God. . . . You must learn to descend in yourself in the infinite dimension that is the human personality we call the soul. It is like an atom whose limits we cannot find. St Paul said about this dimension, “You are the temple of the living God” [1 Cor 3.16]. It is clear he is saying that God lives within us, not outside of ourselves.

- Fr Roman Braga
