Episode 578
In this episode of the guided lectio divina podcast, we’re continuing our series on Gaining Wisdom using selections from A Little Daily Wisdom: Christian Women Mystics by Carmen Acevedo Butcher. Today we’re using a selection from Catherine of Genoa’s Purgation and Purgatory.
That’s what happens to the soul
in the fire of God’s love.
All of its weaknesses are cast out like dross,
Then, stripped of its fragilities, the soul
rests in God, with no characteristics of its own,
since its purification is the stripping away of the lower self in us.
Then our being is God.
