ElisabethIt seems to me that this must be the attitude of every soul that enters into the interior parvis to contemplate her God and to come into strong contact with him: she “falls in failure”, in a kind of divine disappearance before this all-powerful Face of love, this divine Majesty that lives in her!
Blessed Elizabeth of the Trinity (1880–1906)
