Quote/s of the Day – 15 October – St Teresa of Jesus of Avila OCD (1515-1582) Virgin and Doctor of the Church
“Prayer is an act of love,
words are not needed.
Even if sickness distracts from thoughts,
all that is needed, is the will to love.”
“The surest way to determine
whether one possesses the love of God,
is to see whether he or she,
loves his or her neighbour.
These two loves are never separated.
Rest assured, the more you progress
in love of neighbour,
the more your love of God will increase.”
“When we accept what happens to us
and make the best of it,
we are praising God.”
“Know that,
even when you are
in the kitchen,
our Lord moves
amidst the pots.”
“We always find that those
who walked closest to Christ,
were those, who had to bear
the greatest trials.”
“Those who risk all for God
will find that they have
both lost all
and gained all.”
“It seems to me, my daughters,
that everything passes so quickly
that we should be thinking more,
about how to die,
than how to live!”
