More quotes by Therese of Lisieux
Jesus, help me to simplify my life by learning what you want me to be and becoming that person.
Therese of Lisieux
Perfection consists in doing His will, in being that which He wants us to be.
Therese of Lisieux
God would turn the world around to find suffering in order to give it to a soul upon whom He has set His Divine gaze with ineffable love.
Therese of Lisieux
For me, prayer is an upward leap of the heart, an untroubled glance towards heaven, a cry of gratitude and love which I utter from the depths of sorrow as well as from the heights of joy.
Therese of Lisieux
Go often to Holy Communion. Go very often! This is your one remedy.
Therese of Lisieux
(On entering Carmel) I came to save souls and especially to pray for priests.

Therese of Lisieux
The loveliest materpiece of the heart of God is the love of a Mother.
Therese of Lisieux
And it is the Lord, it is Jesus, Who is my judge. Therefore I will try always to think leniently of others, that He may judge me leniently, or rather not at all, since He says: Judge not, and ye shall not be judged.
Therese of Lisieux
I am very far from practicing what I understand.
Therese of Lisieux
Our Lord needs from us neither great deeds nor profound thoughts. Neither intelligence nor talents. He cherishes simplicity.
Therese of Lisieux
I prefer the monotony of obscure sacrifice to all ecstasies. To pick up a pin for love can convert a soul.
Therese of Lisieux
In that first 'fusion' with Jesus (holy communion), it was my Heavenly Mother again who accompanied me to the altar for it was she herself who placed her Jesus into my soul.
Therese of Lisieux
It has a supernatural grandeur which expands the soul and unites it with God. I say an Our Father or a Hail Mary when I feel so spiritually barren that I cannot summon up a single worth while thought. These two prayers fill me with rapture and feed and satisfy my soul.
Therese of Lisieux
Silence does good to the soul.
Therese of Lisieux
He has created the poor savage with no guide but natural law, and it is to their hearts that He deigns to stoop. They are His wild flowers whose homeliness delights Him.
Therese of Lisieux
My soul experienced a peace so sweet, so deep, it would be impossible to express it.
Therese of Lisieux
I want to give myself totally to Him...I want to live no longer but for Him.
Therese of Lisieux
I would prefer a thousand times to receive reproofs than to give them to others.
Therese of Lisieux
Love proves itself by deeds, so how am I to show my love? Great deeds are forbidden me. The only way I can prove my love is by scattering flowers and these flowers are every little sacrifice, every glance and word, and the doing of the least actions for love.
Therese of Lisieux
