St Joseph with Carmelite Doctors
“Ah, gentle and so loving/ you wake within me, proving/ that you are there in secret, all alone;/ your fragrant breathing stills me/ your grace, your glory fills me/ so tenderly your love becomes my own.”
– St John of the Cross, whose feast is today (14 Dec).
My sermon for today can be read here.
This painting of St Joseph with St Teresa of Avila and St John of the Cross is from the Stella Maris monastery on Mount Carmel in the Holy Land.
