Word for every day

Falaises d'Etretat

Elisabeth de la Trinité

- 1 -: How great is God and how loved we are!
- 2 -: Christ... I love Him passionately and in loving Him, I am transformed in Him.
- 3 -: I think nothing can distract us from Him when we act only for Him.
- 4 -: The Trinity, this is our dwelling, our home,
the Father’s house that we must never leave.
- 5 -: I so love this mystery of the Holy Trinity; it is an abyss in which I lose myself!
- 6 -: The morning, those words were told to me deep down in my soul: “ If someone loves me, my Father will love him;
and we will come in him and will make our home in him”. And at the same time, I saw how true this was.
I couldn’t say how... Nevertheless I saw them, having their council of love in me.
- 7 - Blessed Sacrament

L'Eucharistie - artisannat monastique Béthléem

I aspire only to give my life

To return a little of His great love

- 8 -: The Holy Trinity; that word is so sweet, and it is so simple. It is enough to believe.
- 9 -: Although we don’t feel His presence anymore with our feelings,
yet He is there, perhaps even closer.
- 10 -: Jesus can use me.
My heart will ceaselessly sing to Him:
“ In your love, my God, I have faith”.
- 11 -: Always love prayer, and when I say prayer, I don’t mean so much imposing on yourself
a lot of vocal prayers to be recited every day as that elevation of the soul toward God
through all things that establishes us in a kind of continual communion with the Holy Trinity
by quite simply doing everything in Their presence.
- 12 Sacred Heart-

Statue du Sacré Coeur - artisannat monastique Béthléem

O sacred Heart of my Savior,
You whom I adore, O You whom I love,
You all Love, Supreme Goodness,
Only You possess my heart.
- 13 -: O Jesus of the Eucharist
My Spouse, my Love, my Life,
How much I love coming each evening
to listen, to talk to you, to see you!...
- 14 -

Mer au couchant

In the evening I made a good half hour of adoration before the Blessed Sacrament...
Who could describe the sweetness of this heart-to-heart encounter
in which one feels no longer on earth, and no longer sees nor hears anything but God!
- 15 -: Beside Jesus-Host
I would like to spend my life.
Resting close to his Heart
makes my happiness here below.
- 16 -: When the Blessed Sacrament is exposed, I place before my Jesus
all those who are in my heart, and there, close to Him, I find them again.
- 17 -: Don’t you believe than when a heart has been taken captive by Christ,
it must then give itself wholly?
- 18 -: May each heart beat be a cry of gratitude and love!
- 19 -: To give yourself, isn’t that the need of your soul too...
Oh! it is the response to His Love.
- 20 -: If we remain always united to Him by a simple,
loving gaze of faith, we can say at the end of every day:
“Because I love my Father, I always do what pleases Him”.
- 21 -

Femme en prière

Don’t you think that in action just as in contemplation, we can radiate God.
- 22 -: God is spirit, and we approach Him through faith.
- 23 -: “I must stay in your house!”... My master who wants to dwell in me with the Father and His Spirit of love,
so that, in the words of the beloved disciple,
I may have “communion” with them.
- 24 -: He who has taken me completely to Himself is all Love.
- 25 -: How great is God and how loved we are!
- 26 -: I am asking Him to imprint Himself on you so you can say with the apostle:
“I live no longer I, but Jesus Christ lives in me” and so you may be His sacrament.
- 27 -: May everything in you be divine and marked with His seal,
so that you may be another Christ working for the glory of the Father!
- 28 -

Chutes du Niagara

How powerful over souls is the apostle
who remains always at the Spring of living waters;
then he can overflow...since he lives in communion with the Infinite!
- 29 -: I want to work for the glory of God, and for that I must be wholly filled with Him;
then I will be all-powerful: one look, one desire become an irresistible prayer that can obtain everything.
- 30 -: Always believe in Love...always sing in thanksgiving.
