The Holy Guest of Our Souls

Blessed Elizabeth of the Trinity wrote, “We must become aware that God dwells within us and do everything in Him, then we are never commonplace, even when performing the most ordinary tasks.”

This sounds like such a simple practice, and it is simple...but not easy. It is so hard to remember, but the more we do remember that God, the Most Holy Trinity, dwells within us and recall His presence as we go about our daily mundane and not-so-mundane tasks, the more our lives will be transformed. We will become more and more like the One who created us, more and more like the One who gave up His life so that we could live forever, more and more like the One who is Love Eternal and whispers inspiration into our souls.

Let us think of Him as we fold our laundry, as we wash the dishes, as we drive to work, as we answer the phone and as we smile when we feel like lashing out in anger. Let us be aware that He is not only watching us, but dwelling within us in the deepest part of who we are. He breathes life into us and constantly wills our existance. As we remember Who is with us, Who dwells in us, we begin to understand the incredible beauty that He has created around us and within us.
