Painting of Hildegard von Bingen by Tricia Danby
The Creator and Lord of all so loved the world, that He sent His Son for its salvation, the Prince and Savior of the faithful, who washed and dried our wounds, and from Him also came that most sweet medicine, from which all the good things of salvation flow.
On Worship:
Be not lax in celebrating. Be not lazy in the festive
service of God. Be ablaze with enthusiasm. Let us be an alive, burning
offering before the altar of God.
On Humility:
Thus beware lest you attribute to yourself alone those good qualities which are yours in both your spirit and your works. Rather, attribute them to God, from whom all virtues proceed like sparks from a fire . . . For whoever is aware that he has good qualities, but ascribes them to himself alone, that person is like an infidel who worships only the works of his own hands.
