The Sign of the Cross
The remembrance of the Passion of Christ is like an ark of heavenly treasures (Pr 2:4, Jb 28:18), a door which gives access to enter (cf Jn 10:9) and enjoy the glorious Jesus, and a perfect mistress of all the spiritual arts: an inexhaustible source of living water (Jn 4:14), a profound well of the secrets of God. —St Camilla Battista of Varano, Treatise on the Purity of HeartDe Vita Contemplativa – Franciscan Sisters of the Immaculate
