"Totally love Him, Who gave Himself,
totally for your love.” - St Clare
“I come, O Lord, unto Thy sanctuary
to see the life and food of my soul.
As I hope in Thee, O Lord, inspire me with that
confidence which brings me to Thy holy mountain.
Permit me, Divine Jesus,
to come closer to Thee,
that my whole soul may do homage
to the greatness of Thy majesty;
that my heart, with its tenderest affections,
may acknowledge Thine infinite love; that
to see the life and food of my soul.
As I hope in Thee, O Lord, inspire me with that
confidence which brings me to Thy holy mountain.
Permit me, Divine Jesus,
to come closer to Thee,
that my whole soul may do homage
to the greatness of Thy majesty;
that my heart, with its tenderest affections,
may acknowledge Thine infinite love; that
my memory may dwell on the admirable mysteries
here renewed every day, and that the sacrifice
here renewed every day, and that the sacrifice
of my whole being may accompany Thine.”
St Clare of Assisi
Feast Day – August 11
"They say that we are too poor,
but can a heart which possesses the infinite God
be truly called poor?" ~ St Clare
