St. Elizabeth of the Trinity writes
\nto her mother about her vocation in Carmel<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n<\/header>\n
\n

The Master has done all things well.<\/p>\n

He has chosen a very beautiful part for your daughter by calling her to Carmel. Know that she is happy, with a happiness no one can take away from her, for it is wholly divine\u2026<\/p>\n

On the 15th, I entrusted my best wishes to the Blessed Virgin and asked her, in going up to Heaven, to draw the very best from God\u2019s treasures for my Mama.<\/p>\n

I also asked her to reveal that sweet secret of union with God that makes us remain with Him through everything: it\u2019s the intimacy of a child with its mother, of the bride with the Bridegroom; that is the life of your Carmelite; union is her brilliant sun, she sees infinite horizons unfold!<\/p>\n

When you go to that dear little church, say a prayer for me, remember the time when we came and knelt together before the poor Tabernacle, remember that I am the prisoner of the divine Prisoner and that, close to Him, there is no distance at all. One day in Heaven, we shall be even closer still, since we are separated now for love of Him!<\/p>\n
