Gertrud von le Fort
For Reflection:
Consider the first statement in this quote from Gertrud von le Fort. On a scale of 1 - 10, how do I rank my readiness with 1 being “Not Ready At All, and 10 being “Out-The-Door.” What holds me back; what causes me to press forward? What is defined here as the “feminine principle” and why do you think it is the “decisive, the positive element of the Christian order of grace”? Contemplate this in light of Our Lady. After reading the last statement, ask “To what extent am I molded in the Marian dogma?”
