(Note: We diverge this morning from our usual format for a taste of this poetic poem/prayer of St. Teresa of Avila, a mystic and yet practical spiritual guide, as we daily try to deepen our personal prayer and reflection.
Loving the Wisdom of God
I am yours and born for you.
What do you want of me?
Majestic and Sovereign,
Unending Wisdom,
Kindness pleasing to my soul;
God sublime, one Being Good,
Behold this one so vile,
Singing of her love to you:
What do you want of me?
Yours, you made me,
Yours, you saved me,
Yours, you awaited me,
Yours, I did not stray.
What do you want of me?
Look at me, Sweet Love
Sweet Love, look at me,
What do you want of me?
Simply take some time to let this prayer come from the heart.
Bro Rene
