Each prayer is more beautiful than the others. I cannot recite them all and not knowing which to choose, I do like children who do not know how to read, I say very simply to God what I wish to say, without composing beautiful sentences, and he always understands me.
–Saint Therese of Lisieux (1873-1897)
Prayer is a cry of gratitude and love in the midst of trial as well as joy.
— Saint Therese Lisieux (1873-1897)
Jesus, because He is Eternal, regards not the time but only the love.
–Saint Therese of Lisieux (1873-1897)
Believe me, don’t wait until tomorrow to begin becoming a saint.
–Saint Therese of Lisieux (1873-1897)
We can lean on nothing but our Lord, for he alone is immutable.
–Saint Therese of Lisieux (1873-1897)
Love consumes us only in the measure of our self-surrender.
— Saint Therese of Lisieux (1873-1897)
