English term or phrase: such strong breathings and thirstings after God
If Christ be born in thy heart, then it is with thee as in a birth. There is life. Faith is principum vivens, it is the vital organ of the soul. ‘The life that I live in the flesh is by the faith of the Son of God.’ Gal 2:20. There is appetite. ‘As new-born babes, desire the sincere milk of the word.’ I Peter 2:2. The word is like breast-milk, pure, sweet, nourishing; and the soul in which Christ is formed desires this breast-milk. Bernard, in one of his soliloquies, comforts himself with this, that he surely had the new birth in him, because he found in his heart ***such strong breathings and thirstings after God***. After Christ is born in the heart, there is a violent motion: there is a striving to enter in at the strait gate, and offering violence to the kingdom of heaven. Matt 11:12. By this we may know Christ is formed in us. This is the only comfort, that as Christ was born into the world, so he is born in our hearts; as he was united to our flesh, so he is united to our person.
