7th Sunday After Easter

"Accordingly, in every soul that the Spirit has anointed with the oil of gladness, so that it may desire Jesus, he accomplishes his end in the same manner. And the result is that the bodily way of acting, whether in thought or affection, the way in which, while the soul was still inexperienced, gradually and little by little, turns into a strength that is all spiritual."

-- John of Ford [h/t: Magnificat]
(+1214, Abbot of a Cistercian Monastery, England)
