Ejaculations of the Heart
Joseph of Cupertino was often totally consumed by prayerful rapture and was even observed levitating more than 70 times. The experience of levitation is a physical expression of the deep prayer that raises the heart and mind to God. Johnnette shares how the nuns in her school taught them to express these little prayers or ejaculations of the heart throughout the day. Her favorite is " God have mercy on your daughter and save her from herself."
