One abyss calls upon another. It is there, my God, at the bottom that I shall meet You: the abyss of my poverty, of my nothingness, will be confronted with the abyss of Your mercy, the immensity of Your All. There I will find strength to die to myself and, losing every trace of self, I shall be changed into love.
Blessed Elizabeth of the Trinity (1880–1906)

How lovely! I quoted from Psalm 42 only yesterday. I love it when God speaks the same message through different voices :-) I’m going to print this one off.

I think there are so many (legitimate) ways to interpret ‘deep calls on deep’ — but this is certainly a favourite.
