Prayer: Teresa Benedicta of the Cross
Only
by the means of grace can nature be liberated from its dross, restored to its
purity, and made free to receive divine life. And this divine life itself is
the inner driving power from which acts of love come forth.
I thought of "Take Lord and Receive" - my daily prayer. "Your love and your grace are sufficient for me." My prayer is that I will allow God's love and grace to be sufficient and won't 'need' anything else.
