Le Père, qui habite au fond de toutes choses et dans mes propres profondeurs, me communique sa Parole et son Esprit. En les recevant, je suis entraîné dans sa propre vie et je connais Dieu dans son propre amour, ne faisant qu'un avec lui dans son propre Fils.

The Father, dwelling in the depths of all things and in my own depths, communicates to me His Word and His Spirit. Receiving them I am drawn into His own life and know God in His own Love, being one with Him in His own Son.
