And transform your whole being into the image of the Godhead Itself
through contemplation!
So that you too may feel what His friends feel as they taste the hidden sweetness which God Himself has reserved from the beginning for those who love Him.
Place your mind before the mirror of eternity!
Place your soul in the brilliance of glory.
Place your heart in the figure of the divine substance!
St. Clare of Assisi

a) St. Gregory the Illuminator
b) St. Oscar Romero
c) John Keble
