We were enclosed, O eternal Father, within the garden of your breast. You drew us out of your holy mind like a flower petaled with our soul's three powers and into each power you put the whole plant, so that they might bear fruit in your garden, might come back to you with the fruit you gave them. And you would come back to the soul, to fill her with your blessedness. There the soul dwells like the fish in the sea and the sea in the fish.

Do not be satisfied with little things, because God wants great things!

Proclaim the truth and do not be silent through fear.

Out of darkness is born the light.

Lord, take me from myself and give me to yourself.

Love does not stay idle.

We will be humble as we are obedient, and as obedient as we are humble.
