Chapter 5 - St Catherine of Siena - the Presence of God 

..... as He said to St Catherine of Siena: 

            "Think of me and I will think of thee, endeavour to perform all thy actions as if                     conscious that I am watching thee, and I will take it upon myself to bring them all              to a happy conclusion"; 

this was the blessed lot of the Spouse who said;

         I to my beloved, and his turning is towards me [Canticles vii,10]. 

I gaze upon my beloved and He on me; I strive to walk in His presence; He is attentive to direct my steps so that I please Him in all things.
