The world's thy ship and not thy home.
Therese of Lisieux

Therese of Lisieux
nobody is a good judge in his own cause!

Therese of Lisieux

Therese of Lisieux

Therese of Lisieux

Therese of Lisieux

Therese of Lisieux
Look at Him while He is looking at you.
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
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 can nourish myself on nothing but truth
Therese of Lisieux
It is only love which makes us acceptable to God.
Therese of Lisieux
The great majority of men use their own short-sighted ideas as a yardstick for measuring the divine omnipotence.
