St. Teresa of Jesus of the Andes:
Six days ago, while I was making my thanksgiving after communion, I felt such love so great for Our Lord that it seemed to me my heart could not resist it. Yet at the same time--believe me, Father, I don't know how to express what happened to me--I felt kind of stunned, throughout those days I've been as though I were outside myself. I spent all those days as though I were not in myself. I would do things, but without realizing it. Later, in prayer, God would present Himself to me, but immediately my soul seemed to go out of itself. This happened with such violence that I nearly fell to the ground.
Peace be with you!
Rosemarie, OCDS
