worship

"May it be the real me that worships you, and may it be the real You that I worship" [C.S. Lewis]

"O Trinity uncreated and without beginning,
O undivided Unity, three and one,
Father, Son and Spirit, a single God;
Accept this our hymn from tongues of clay
As if from mouths of flame."
[Orthodox Church]

"O my God, Trinity whom I adore! Help me to become wholly forgetful of self, that I may be
immovably rooted in you, as changeless and calm as though my soul were already in eternity.
May nothing disturb my peace or draw me forth from you, but may I, at every moment,
penetrate more deeply into the depths of your mystery! Establish my soul in peace;
make it your heaven, your cherished abode, and the place of your rest. Let me never leave you alone, but remain wholly absorbed in you, in living faith, plunged in adoration, and
wholly yielded up to your creative action."
[Elizabeth of the Trinity]
