Wife, mother, Franciscan tertiary. Cistercian. mystic, visionary, counselor, and mystical writer. She recorded her personal "revelations" from her visions especially those on the Passion, which were very popular in the Middle Ages. I think what Bridget shows us is that we are never too busy to do God's work I created all things for the sake of mankind, and placed all things under his authority, but he loves all things except Me, and hates nothing but Me. I bought back the inheritance for him which he had lost because of his sin. But he is so foolish and without reason that he prefers this passing glory - which is like the foam of the sea that rises up for a moment like a mountain, and then quickly falls down to nothing - instead of eternal glory in which there is everlasting good.
-- Revelations and Prophecies, Book One, Chapter Two
