Synopsis

"I am going to bury myself in the depths of my soul, that is, in God. Will you follow me in this very simple movement?" -- St. Elizabeth of the Trinity

St. Teresa of Avila said that every soul is made for transforming union with God. In her footsteps, St. Elizabeth of the Trinity (1880-1906) invites you to rendezvous with her in the interior castle and experience the indwelling presence of the Holy Trinity.

Go out into the deep: My Three, my All!

In describing her intimate relationship with God, St. Elizabeth referred to her Divine Bridegroom as "Maestro." Here, she guides you in hearing His song and living the chorus of love, drawing ever closer to His very Heart. Through her powerful spiritual wisdom, as reflected in her letters to relatives, loved ones, and priests, you will find:

• How to live in the freedom of silence and recollection and remain absorbed in love of God while fulfilling practical demands
• Guidance on offering your life to God by uniting yourself to Jesus in the Holy Eucharist
• Ways to deepen your life of prayer to experience the Holy Trinity's indwelling presence
• The secret to letting go and clinging to God with the intimacy of a contemplative gaze
• How to imitate Mary in offering your life as a House of God, Praise of Glory, and Host of Praise
• St. Elizabeth's Oblation to the Trinity and how to enter the Furnace of Love in the altar of your heart

In these awe-inspiring pages, St. Elizabeth unveils the union that you were made to enjoy through Our Lady, Queen of Martyrs and Gate of Heaven. By reflecting on her name and vocation as Virgin, Spouse, and Mother, St. Elizabeth invites us to answer the universal call to holiness so that our lives will also flow into the very life of God -- and His life will flow into ours. By imitating our Blessed Mother in her deep simplicity and making little acts of love and sacrifice each day, we unite with Jesus in the Sacred Host, become living oblations, and thus glorify our Crucified and Risen Lord.
