Thérèse

Why do we all love Saint Thérèse? Perhaps because she helps us understand that holiness, real sanctity is accessible, accomplished by doing little things as best we can. Her writings, her "way" remind us that our failings when brought to the Lord for his mercy grant us access to intimacy with him.

“God would never inspire me with desires which cannot be realized; so in spite of my littleness, I can hope to be a saint.”
