“ My grace is sufficient for you, for power is made perfect in weakness.”

Quote of a Carmelite Saint-St. Therese of Lisieux-For the 150th anniversary of the birth of St.Therese   Advent with St. Therese of Lisieux-Susan Hines-Brigger, Franciscan media (adapted for the current liturgical season). Thank you, Carmelite Nuns.

“Sometimes when I am in such a state of spiritual dryness that not a single good thought occurs to me, I say very slowly the ‘Our Father’ or the ‘Hail Mary,’ and these words suffice to take me out of myself, and wonderfully refresh me.”  St. Therese of Lisieux

Prayer:
“St. Therese, your words remind us to lean on the foundations of our faith when we are struggling.  Help us remember that any act of faith is important, no matter how small.”
