5. From the soon to be canonized Elizabeth of the Trinity:

O Lord, give me a passion for listening to you. Sometimes this desire to be silent is so strong that the only thing I long to do is to remain like Magdalen at your feet, O my adored Master, eager to hear everything and to penetrate deeper and deeper into the mystery of charity that you came to reveal to us. Grant that in action, even when I seem to be fulfilling the office of Martha, my soul may remain buried like Magdalen in her contemplation, remaining at the source like one athirst. That is how I understand the apostolate, O Lord; I shall then be able to radiate you, to give you to souls, if I remain always at these divine springs. Grant that I may draw very near to you, my beloved Master, enter into communion with your soul, identify myself with its every disposition, and then go fourth like you to do the will of the Father.
