HERE IS THE ROYAL ROAD OF THE CROSS

Hope supports us,
Love draws us.

Blessed Elizabeth of the Trinity: Memorial, November 8


BL. ELIZABETH OF THE TRINITY
Blessed Elizabeth of the Trinity, the Saint of the Divine Indwelling
DAILY QUOTATIONS~Bl. Elizabeth
Elizabeth, the House of God 
The Fellowship of His Suffering 
Elizabeth of the Trinity and St. Paul
Note:St. Teresa of Avila often referred to the Carmelite monestaries as the Dovecotes of Our Lady. For that reason, and because, like St. Thérèse of Lisieux, Blessed Elizabeth of the Trinity lived near Paris during the time in which most of the cards in this collection were published, I looked for one for her feast day that I hope expresses something of the Carmelite charism she so perfectly embodied:
Nest of the Dove
I retire into solitude, and there listen to what the Lord says to me.

There,  
recollected and alone,
in the Heart of Jesus
I lose myself.

I leave the cares of the age
to seek you in solitude,
O, Jesus.

St. Simon Stock: Feastday, May 16


Read about St. Simon Stock
Hoe voordeelig is het, de Moeder Gods tot Moeder te hebben.
~St. Teresa of Avila
Difficult to translate the Dutch. My best guess:
The Favor is this: God's Mother becomes the Mother within.
or perhaps:
The Favor is this: You become the habitation of the Mother of God.

~St. Teresa of Avila
