"O Lamb of God, that takest away the sins of the world, grant us Thy peace!" That is a tremendous prayer to take on our lips, for it means peace at a great price: the peace of the Cross, of absolute acceptance, utter abandonment to God -- a peace inseperable from sacrifice. ~from The Fruits of the Spirit by Evelyn Underhill I am espoused to Him whom the angels serve. Sun and moon stand in wonder at His beauty. ~from the Rite of Consecration to a Life of Virginity
