Explore "How all the Words of God are to be Heard with Humility, and how Many Consider them Not" by Thomas à Kempis on Textopian.
"My Son, hear My words, for My words are most sweet, surpassing all the knowledge of the philosophers and wise men of this world. ‘My words are spirit, and they are life,'49 and are not to be weighed by man's understanding. They are not to be drawn forth for vain approbation, but to be heard in silence, and to be received with all humility and with deep love."
And I said, " ‘Blessed is the man whom Thou teachest, O Lord, and instructest him in Thy law, that Thou mayest give him rest in time of adversity,'50 and that he be not desolate in the earth."
