Meditation 16 & 17 – Reflections on Divine Intimacy: Guarding the Interior Life

In today’s episode of Reflections on Divine Intimacy, we focus on the theme of guarding the interior life, combining Meditations 16 and 17: Guard of the Senses and Interior Silence. Drawing on the wisdom of Saint John of the Cross and Saint Elizabeth of the Trinity, we reflect on how exterior silence and mortification of the senses lead to the deeper interior silence where God speaks to our souls. Join us as we explore how to make our hearts a sanctuary for God.
