Canticle

My soul is occupied,
And all my substance in His service;
Now I guard no flock,
Nor have I any other employment:
My sole occupation is love.

- St John of the Cross (Canticle of the Soul and the Bridegroom, 28)

I'm a big fan of St. John of the Cross. My mom actually claims that a book I gave her of St. John excerpts was instrumental in bringing her back to the Catholic Church.
