O God, whose love is without measure:
out of the depths of my own creatureliness and yearning
I call out to you.
Out of your own immense depths of power and mystery
you call to me.
Enable me to enter into the beginnings of the secrets of your love,
and let the poor stream of my life
flow into the immensity of your being.
Brother Ramon, SSF, 1935-2000, English Franciscan brother

I love the Lord, for he heard my voice;
he heard my cry for mercy.
Because he turned his ear to me,
I will call on him as long as I live.
