Spiritual Quote of the Day (St. John of the Cross, on Being Lost—Then Found—in Christ)

“If, then, on the common land

I am no longer seen or found,

You will say that I am lost;

That, being enamoured,

I lost myself; and yet was found.”— Carmelite friar and priest St. John of the Cross (1542-1591), “Spiritual Canticle of the Soul and The Bridegroom Christ” (1622)
