\nthe Holy Spirit is communicated to the Church so that she and each of her
\nmembers may become daily more and more like to our Savior. Those whom God
\nforeknew he predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son (Romans 8:29);
\nevery Christian is holy and pleasing to God to the extent that he has become
\nlike Christ.
\nfashion the traits of the divine resemblance in us<\/span>, making us daily more and
\nmore like to our Savior<\/span>. If we would cooperate fully with his action, each day
\nwould witness some progress in our becoming more like Christ.
\nSpirit of love, descend within me and reproduce in me as it were, an
\nincarnation of the Word, that I may be to him another humanity; wherein he
\nrenews his mystery.
\nconform, there is no presumption in aspiring to become so like him that he can
\nrenew his mystery in us, or rather, prolong in us his work of glorifying the
\nFather and of redeeming men. Indeed this is exactly Jesus’ desire in sending us
\nhis Spirit.
