“He had made darkness around us and at the same time kindled the clearest light in us. We are under his guidance, his pupils. To borrow a metaphor from Ruusbroec, we have become living lanterns in a murky night. God’s light fills us and illumines us, and at the same time makes us shine. We are ‘bearers of Christ’. Would that we saw all lights of the world as darkness, to recognize the eternal true light and make it shine through us.”

St. Titus Brandsma
