Today is the Memorial of Saint Teresa of Jesus. The antiphon taken from Psalm 42 reads, "Like the deer that yearns for running streams, so my soul is yearning for you, my God; my soul is thirsting for God, the living God." Before I know God, I yearned and thirsted for something to fill the void of my life. That was yearning and thirsting in gloom. Then I got to know the Lord God through his Son Jesus and my void was filled. Now I yearn and thirst for God the Father in joy!
