now wholly surrender yourself!
Do not send me
any more messengers,
they cannot tell me what I must hear.
Healing power
now wholly surrender yourself!
Do not send me
any more messengers,
they cannot tell me what I must hear.
now wholly surrender yourself!

I’m currently reading and meditation upon the Spiritual Canticle so this stanza is fresh in my thoughts. The messengers of faith are good, but the soul ultimately longs for the unmediated presence of the beloved. And only he can heal that wound of longing.
