"Enjoy Me."

Just these two words He spoke
changed my life,
"Enjoy Me."


What a burden I thought I was to carry -
a crucifix, as did He.


Love once said to me, "I know a song,
would you like to hear it?"


And laughter came from every brick in the street
and from every pore
in the sky.


After a night of prayer, He
changed my life when
He sang,


"Enjoy Me."


St.Theresa

The Treasure must not be disturbed,

It is not necessary to become totally preoccupied
with worldly affairs. We should take things
easily, and not get caught up in bondage to them,
lest in becoming disturbed we might distress
something greater. The Treasure must not be disturbed,
for if this world should worry, That Other
will transform it, but if That Other is vexed (may
we seek refuge with God!) then who will transform
That?
