Nest of the Turtledove Image of the Heart of Jesus, spouse and faithful friend of our souls.
Solitary, in its nest, the chaste dove in peaceful rest experiences the sweetness: there, kind Jesus, the pure and faithful friend finds in your Sacred Heart the asylum of happiness.

There, recollected and alone, in the bosom of Jesus I lose myself.

THE NEST OF THE DOVE
I retire into solitude and there
I listen to what the Lord is saying to me.
I listen to what the Lord is saying to me.

ALONE WITH GOD
At the foot of the Cross in the livery of Mary. O, the sweet retreat!

At the foot of the Cross in the livery of Mary. O, the sweet retreat!
Bouasse Lebel 1761
Solitude is the nourishment of fervor.
Heart of Jesus Dwelling of the contemplative soul.
I would wish to expire in the heart of Jesus.
Detaching myself from creatures to look for God, I rest in God Himself...
This is the whole interior life. Leaving everything, I found Everything!
Letaille, Paris
Be it your only book
