nothing to cause
us to take a
second look.
He was looked
down on and
passed over,
a man who suffered,
who knew
pain firsthand.
One look at Him
and people
turned away.
We looked down
on Him, thought
He was scum.
But the fact is,
it was our pains
He carried our
disfigurements,
all the things
wrong with us.
Ref: Isaiah 53: 2-5)
Elizabeth of the Trinity’s life.
There were no ecstasies.
She didn’t work miracles.
She didn’t communicate
heavenly messages
through visions or
words she heard.
Instead, she presented
a message to modern
man through her
own life of fidelity,
showing us that
the true road to
contemplative prayer
is not an ascent to
grasp God, but a
descent into the
depths of one’s heart.
(Elizabeth of the Trinity is a modern
saint of the catholic church) .
