Give ear to my prayer, O God; do not hide yourself from my supplication.

—Psalm 55:1 (NRSV)

“I need far greater knowledge and experience than I have to describe this dark night through which the soul passes in order to reach the divine light of the perfect union of God’s love. This darkness and these spiritual and temporal trials through which happy souls pass in order to be able to reach this high state of perfection are so numerous and so profound that human knowledge is not fully capable of describing them. The only persons who can describe this dark night are the ones who experience it, and even they cannot describe it accurately.” —St. John of the Cross

There are some things I can say only to You, God.
