Ps 42,8 Here deep calls to deep

(Ps 42,8) Here deep calls to deep

[8] Here deep calls to deep in the roar of your torrents. All your waves and breakers sweep over me.

(CCC 2803) After we have placed ourselves in the presence of God our Father to adore and to love and to bless him, the Spirit of adoption stirs up in our hearts seven petitions, seven blessings. The first three, more theological, draw us toward the glory of the Father; the last four, as ways toward him, commend our wretchedness to his grace. "Deep calls to deep" (Ps 42:7).
