Protected: About Me

“She is certainly happy who has been given to enter into this union in order to cleave with all her heart to Him, at whose beauty all the blessed hosts of heaven unceasingly wonder whose love stirs to love, whose contemplation remakes, whose kindliness floods, whose sweetness fills, whose memory glows gently, whose fragrance brings the dead to life again, whose glorious gaze will make all the citizens of the Jerusalem above most blessed, He is the splendour of eternal glory, the brightness of everlasting light and therefore he is an unspotted mirror.”

—St. Clare of Assisi, 4th Letter to Agnes, verses 9-14 (translated by Sr. Frances Teresa Downing, Tau Publishing, 2016)
