As I work on my show Miss Myrna Davenport’s Poetry in Motion I came across this lovely blog with Sufi quotes & wisdom. It’s too good not to be shared! I am grateful to have crossed blog paths with Faith786. Enjoy.

Assalamu Alaikum!
I have been reading my books and I found some of the most amazing Sufi poems/quotes/proverbs that I HAD to share. (I’ll add to the list as I continue reading.) I hope you enjoy them and get closer to Allah swt! (Oh some of the quotes are from the internet, but these quotes are meant for educational purposes as I can imagine the speakers would want us to learn from them.)
Open to me, so that I may open.
Provide me Your inspiration
So that I might see mine.
-–Rumi
I searched for God and found only myself. I searched for myself and found only God.
-–Sufi Proverb
There wouldn’t be such a thing as counterfeit gold if there were no real gold somewhere.
-–Sufi Proverb
If you make intense supplication
and the timing of the answer is delayed,
do not despair of it.
