“O eternal God, you are a deep sea, into which the more I enter the more I find, and the more I find the more I seek. You fill us in such a way that we can neither contain nor desire anything but you. And yet you are not satisfied unless we ask for great things. Give me, then, a mouth to speak to you, and a heart to love you.”
— Catherine of Siena (1347–1380)

Reflection: Where might God be inviting me to let my words flow more honestly from a heart shaped by love rather than fear, self‑protection, or habit?
