  5. Quote of the day, 8 July: St. Elizabeth of the Trinity

    Oh, ask that my likeness to the adored Image might be more perfect each day: “Configuratus morti ejus” (Phil 3:10). That is what haunts me, what gives strength to my soul in suffering.

    If you knew what a work of destruction I feel throughout my whole being; the road to Calvary has opened, and I am quite joyful to walk it like a bride beside the divine Crucified.

    I ask you to bless me in the name of the Trinity to which I am especially consecrated.

    Would you also please consecrate me to the Blessed Virgin, for she, the Immaculate One, gave me the habit of Carmel and I am asking her to clothe me again in the “fine linen robe” in which the bride is dressed to present herself at the marriage feast of the Lamb.

    Saint Elizabeth of the Trinity

  6. Quote of the day, 8 May: St. Elizabeth of the Trinity

    “Virgo fidelis”: that is, Faithful Virgin, “who kept all these things in her heart.” [Lk. 2:19] She remained so little, so recollected in God’s presence, in the seclusion of the temple, that she drew down upon herself the delight of the Holy Trinity: “Because He has looked upon the lowliness of His servant, henceforth all generations shall call me blessed!” [Lk. 1:48]

    The Father, bending down to this beautiful creature, who was so unaware of her own beauty, willed that she be the Mother in time of Him whose Father He is in eternity.

  21. Quote of the day, 11 January: Blessed Marie-Eugène

    “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me” (Is 61:1)

    This descent of the Holy Spirit upon Christ—what is it? It’s not only a sign; it’s a true descent of the Holy Spirit. It is the Spirit of the Father; it’s the Spirit of the Son. In Jesus, humanity is united to divinity. Our Lord is continually animated by his spirit of sonship, living from this filial movement as Son of the Father by nature, and as Son in his humanity. At the same time, his humanity, in all his actions, is guided and animated by the Spirit of God.

    And there is not only the descent of the Holy Spirit; there is also the word of the Father: “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased” (Mt 3:17). The Trinity is present there, in the prayer of Jesus, and each of the three Persons affirms what he is and what he does: the Father, in recognizing his Son; the Son, in becoming incarnate, in allowing himself to be baptized and in praying here below; the Spirit, in taking possession of the humanity of the Son.

    This grasp of the Holy Spirit can be understood as a taking possession of the humanity of Christ for his public life, for all the acts he is going to accomplish. The Christian himself becomes perfect only when he is moved by the Holy Spirit. It is the Holy Spirit who does everything.

    Let us learn how to place ourselves in cooperation with him, allowing his action to work within us. The saint is the one who understands that God is everything. “This is my joy: he must increase, and I must decrease,” said John the Baptist (Jn 3:30). This sanctifying grace, this presence, this ever more powerful action of the Holy Spirit, will make of us perfect children of God.

  22. Quote of the day, 21 November: St. Elizabeth of the Trinity

    O my God, Trinity whom I adore, let me entirely forget myself that I may abide in you, still and peaceful as if my soul were already in eternity

    Saint Elizabeth of the Trinity
    21 November 1904

    Mother Germaine, the prioress of the Carmel of Dijon, offers us the following insights concerning the depth of St. Elizabeth’s prayer during the few months leading up to the composition of Elizabeth’s great prayer to the Trinity. These notes come from the Ordinary Process for Elizabeth’s beatification (PO 73v–74r):

    “She depicts herself when she writes: “God in me, me in him, oh! That’s my life!” and again: “All my occupation is to go inside and lose myself in Those who are there!” [the divine Hosts of her soul, of whom she had just spoken].

    Father Conrad de Meester, O.C.D., biographer and editor of the Oeuvres Complètes (Collected Works) of St. Elizabeth of the Trinity, described the preached retreat that preceded the feast of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, 21 November 1904:

    The retreat concluded on the morning of 21 November. After the Eucharist and a final address by Father Fages, O.P., the Carmelites went to the oratory and, before the Blessed Sacrament, exposed for adoration, they renewed their religious vows, one by one, after which each sister prostrated herself for a few moments on the floor in the form of a cross, as on the day of her first profession.

    As daughters of Our Lady of Carmel, living perpetually in the cloistered temple of their monastery, each year they renew their ardent consecration to God and his universal Church on the feast of the Presentation of the Virgin Mary in the Temple. Sister Elizabeth of the Trinity, the youngest professed, perhaps the most absolute, dedicated her whole being to those she liked to call “her Three.” On this day, the Blessed Sacrament remained exposed. Elizabeth was accustomed to spending all available time there.

    After her death, they were surprised to find in her papers a prayer in her own handwriting, dated 21 November 1904, which began with the words, “O my God, Trinity whom I adore.” It was written in ink, on a sheet torn from a notebook.

    “Her prayer to the Trinity was not only a pious elevation, but the expression of a gift of herself to God. We had prepared together for this renewal of our vows on 21 November 1904; when the day after I asked her about it, she replied that she had received a great grace that was difficult for her to express” (Testimony of Sister Marie of the Trinity, PO 152 r–v).

  25. Quote of the day, 5 August: St. Elizabeth of the Trinity

    Voice of Heaven

    We who are bathed in Light, within the ‘Three’ –
    The Face of God, the splendour of its rays –
    See, by those shinings, into Mystery:
    They ever show new secrets, Heaven’s days.

    Infinite Being! Depth unsoundable!
    Delighted, lost in Your Divinity –
    O Trinity, God thrice-immutable,
    We see Yourself in Your own clarity.

    Voice of Earth

    The saints in Heav’n . . . but, also, here below
    Souls come and merge themselves in such a Love;
    In mystery and night this happens so –
    God satisfies: in dark, in Day above.

    Through everything . . . on earth: already we’re
    Possessing You, our Peace and vision! (for,
    As in one light we gather, there and here,
    We lose ourselves in God, for evermore!

    Voice of Heaven

    As sharers, now, in God’s own Essence, you
    Possess all we possess in Heaven . . . See! –
    You have not yet the joy we have, that’s true;
    But as for giving – you give more than we.

    And when one loves, how good it is to give!
    (You can be giving, every hour and place.)
    Oh, give God glory while on earth you live –
    By self-oblation. Seize on this high grace!

    Saint Elizabeth of the Trinity

    Poem 80

    Note: This poem was written by Elizabeth for the patronal feast of Mother Germaine on 15 June 1902. The original manuscript bears no title or date, but the handwriting and black ink confirm it was composed for this feast day. The poem takes the form of a dialogue between the “Voice of Heaven” and the “Voice of Earth,” alternating throughout. This poem was sung during a “pious recreation” performed by the community for their prioress, Mother Germaine, on her feast day, set to the melody “Reste avec moi, Jésus-Eucharistie” (Remain with me, Jesus-Eucharist). Sister Agnès of Jesus-Maria testified at Elizabeth’s beatification process that when she and Elizabeth went to work in the garden during recreation, they would heartily sing this poem together. The French critical edition notes that the autograph contains some words that are difficult to decipher, and editor Conrad de Meester, OCD, reconstructed portions of the text for clarity.
