THE FIRST PRINCIPLE AND FOUNDATION
From the Spiritual Exercises [23] of Ignatius of Loyola

CONTEMPORARY VERSION
by David Fleming, SJ
1. The goal of our life is to live with God forever. God, who loves us, gave
us life. Our own response of love allows God’s life to flow into us
without limit.
2. All the things in this world are gifts of God, presented to us so that we
can know God more easily and make a return of love more readily.
As a result, we appreciate and use all these gifts of God insofar as they
help us develop as loving persons. But if any of these gifts become the
center of our lives, they displace God and so hinder our growth toward
our goal.
In everyday life, then, we must hold ourselves in balance before all of
these created gifts insofar as we have a choice and are not bound by
some obligation. We should not fix our desires on health or sickness,
wealth or poverty, success or failure, a long life or a short one. For
everything has the potential of calling forth in us a deeper response to
our life in God.
Our only desire and our one choice should be this: I want
and I choose what better leads to God’s deepening his life in me
