In celebration of the canonization of Elizabeth of the Trinity, in this 'Year of Mercy', we are reminded of this wisdom :
'I "remain" very little "in the depths of my poverty." I see "my nothingness, my misery, my weakness; I perceive that I am incapable of progress, of perseverance; I see the multitude of my shortcomings, my defects; I appear in my indigence." "I fall down in my misery, confessing my distress, and I display it before the mercy" of my Master. "Quotidie morior." "I die daily." I decrease, I renounce self more each day so that Christ may increase in me.
[Heaven in Faith, Third Day, Second Prayer]
