Prayer: Teresa of Avila – on becoming a mirror of Christ
My soul seemed to me to be like a brightly polished mirror, without any part on the back or sides or top or bottom that wasn’t totally clear. In its center Christ our Lord was shown to me…. It seemed to me I saw him clearly in every part of my soul, as though in a mirror. And this mirror also… was completely engraved upon the Lord himself by means of a loving communication I wouldn’t know how to describe.
