God calls us to develop an interior, spiritual relationship with Him.
The saints have traditionally labeled spiritual growth as the Purgative, Illuminative and Unitive Ways.
The principle characteristic of the Unitive Way is a simple and constant awareness of God’s presence, a near constant state of communion with Him, and obvious and habitual conformity to His will.
Here we find deep and abiding joy, a unassailable love for God and others, profound humility, freedom from the fear of suffering often accompanied by a strong desire to suffer for God and his people, and apostolic fruitfulness.
