Joyce Rupp is one of the most admired spiritual writers of our time. Her inspirational writings delve on the existential groanings of the human spirit in the modern times, and deeply grounded in sound biblical, theological and psychological principles. Here is a poem from her book, Prayers to Sophia: Deepening our Relationship with Holy Wisdom. I find this from her blog in National Catholic Reporter.
Calling on Sophia
Radiant
and Unfading Wisdom,your deep love calls to me.
I seek you with all my heart.
Hasten to make yourself known.
Sit
at the gate of my heart.
Teach me your ways.
Meet me in my every thought.
Attune my mind to your perceptions.
Open all that is closed within me.
I desire your instruction.
I long to receive and to share your love.
Teach me your ways.
Meet me in my every thought.
Attune my mind to your perceptions.
Open all that is closed within me.
I desire your instruction.
I long to receive and to share your love.
