Spiritual Journey
an inner pilgrimage

My Lord God, I have no idea where I am going. I do not see the road ahead of me. I cannot know for certain where it will end. Nor do I really know myself, and the fact that I think I am following your will does not mean that I am actually doing so. But I believe that the desire to please you does in fact please you. And I hope I have that desire in all that I am doing. I hope that I will never do anything apart from that desire. And I know that if I do this you will lead me by the right road though I may know nothing about it. Therefore I will trust you always though I may seem to be lost and in the shadow of death. I will not fear, for you are ever with me, and you will never leave me to face my perils alone. (Thomas Merton, "Thoughts in Solitude")

The Liturgy of the Hours devotes to prayers specific moment of the day. At the following pages you will find random spiritual aphorisms which can help you to meditate and connect to the Source (reload the page for a new one). For the time dedicated to every Hour of this Spiritual Journey you could keep the words within yourself, letting them expand and grow in meaning into your spirit. Before beginning your journey perhaps you would like to load a music from the collection I linked (right button of the mouse to open it in a different page and not disturb your "walking" along the suggested path).
