The centre of the soul is God; and, when the soul has attained to Him according to the whole capacity of its being, which is the strength and virtue of the soul, it will have reached the last and the deep centre of the soul, which will be when with all its powers it loves and understands and enjoys God.
John of the CrossBeloved, all that is harsh and difficult I want for myself, and all that is gentle and sweet for thee.
John of the CrossThe eternal tide flows hid in Living Bread. That with its Heavenly Life too be fed.
