What is Secretum Meum Mihi?
After Edith Stein's abrupt conversion in 1922, her best friend asked, "Why?" Mysteriously, Stein merely wrote "Secretum Meum Mihi," Latin for "My Secret is mine," on a nearby slip of paper.
Modern women have secrets, too. We say to each other, "I don't know how you do it!" The admiration is real…but so is the exhaustion and anxiety behind it, juggling competing priorities and defying time and space on a daily basis.
Do you ever wonder, "How am I going to keep doing it?"
Edith's secret was Jesus. He was her secret "lover," and she dedicated her life to knowing, loving and serving him. At Secretum Meum Mihi Press, we invite you to take a break with Edith. Discover her secret!

Day 5 Are You the wealth of spirit and of power By which the Lamb loosens the seals From God’s eternal decree? Driven by You the messengers of judgment Ride through the world And with sharp sword divide The reign of light from the reign of night. Then the Heavens are renewed, and new the earth, And through Your breath Everything finds its rightful place: Holy Spirit— Conquering power! Prayer: Come Lord Jesus! We lift up women suffering from mental illnesses and addictions. Bring your peace to their lives in tangible ways. Amen.
