SPIRITUAL GEMS


"ACCEPTING  WHATEVER  COMES  OR  HAPPENS  AS  THE  WILL  OF  GOD,  NO MATTER  WHAT  IT  COSTS,  SPIRITUALLY,  PSYCHOLOGICALLY,  OR  PHYSICALLY,  IS  THE  SUREST  AND  QUICKEST  WAY  TO  A  FREEDOM  OF  SOUL  AND  SPIRIT  THAT  SURPASSES  ALL  UNDERSTANDING  AND  EXPLANATION"

[Walter J. Ciszek S.J.}




Rejoicing, Let us go and see ourselves in Your own Beauty
That is:  Let me be so transformed in Thy beauty, that, being alike in beauty, we may see ourselves both in Thy beauty;
Having Thy beauty, so that, one beholding the other, each may see his own beauty in the other, the beauty of both being Thine only, and mine obsorbed in it.  and so we shall see, each the other, in Thy beauty
[Spiritual Canticle stan. xxxvi St John of the Cross}
