Place Your Mind Before the Mirror of Eternity!
Poem by St. Clare of Assisi
Place your mind before the mirror of eternity!
Place your soul in the brilliance of glory!
Place your heart in the figure of the divine substance!
And transform your whole being into the image of the Godhead Itself through contemplation!
So that you too may feel what His friends feel
as they taste the hidden sweetness
which God Himself has reserved
from the beginning
for those who love Him.
I do not mean to be extravagant, yet sometimes I have intuitive moments. Today during mass, I felt a deep love from St Clare. I attended mass away from the Poor Clares of Perpetual Adoration Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday. Today, I returned to their home to celebrate mass. During mass, absorbed in the profound, I observed a large stain glass depicting St Clare warding off attacking Saracens with the Eucharist. St Clare, a true contemplative, possesses a sacred and strong place in my heart. I pray to her to protect my spiritual partner. I want to post an image in her honor. I love this image. St Clare pray for us.
