My impression of "Little Therese" was that hers was a life totally shaped to the utmost degree by the love of God alone. I know nothing greater, and I would like to put as much of this as possible into my own life and the lives of all who are close to me.
St. Edith Stein
Happy Feast Day, especially to all of you who have chosen Therese as your spiritual mentor!

If you put yourself completely into the hands of the Lord, you can trust that you are being guided safely. What you surrender to Him is never lost; it is preserved, purified, and elevated and balanced to the correct proportions.
