________
FIRE
God of Abraham, God of Isaac, God of Jacob.
Not of the philosophers or the learnt.
Certitude. Certitude. Feeling. Joy. Peace.
God of Jesus Christ, My God and Your God, Your God shall be my God.
Forgetfulness of the world and of everything except God.
He is only to be found by the ways taught in the Gospel. Grandeur of the Human Soul.
Righteous Father, the world has not known you, but I have known you.
Joy, Joy, Joy, Tears of Joy.
This is eternal life, that they know you, the only true God, and the one whom you have sent,
Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ.
I left him, I fled him, renounced him, crucified him. Let me never be separated from Him
He can only be kept by the ways taught in the gospel.
Renunciation, absolute and sweet
Total submission to Jesus Christ and to my direction. Eternally in joy for one day’s exertion on the earth.
