A word or a smile

February 9
"A word or a smile is often enough to put fresh life in a despondent soul."
-St. Therese of Lisieux
Today's Reflection:
What an impact we can have on another person! When you encounter others, how do you respond? Do you pretend to not see them? Or do you embrace them with the warmth of Christ's love? Ask God to help you truly see others today.

Never be surprised by weakness

January 22
"True charity consists in putting up with one's neighbor's faults, never being surprised by his weakness, and being inspired by the least of his virtues."
-St. Therese of Lisieux
Today's Reflection:
Can we love our neighbor as we love ourselves even when he is irksome, irritable, annoying, or just plain grumpy? How do we show the true face of God's love despite the battle raging within us?

I ask only for peace

December 24
"O Jesus, I ask only for peace -- peace and, above all, love that is without measure or limits."
- St. Therese of Lisieux
Today's Reflection:
This reflection from St. Therese reminds us that "perfect love casts out fear." Our Lady was the perfect example of perfect love. Ask her to show you where you need to love more. Who do you need to forgive so that you might experience fully the peace of Christ on Christmas day?

Foretaste of Heaven

November 3
"To bear my exile now, within this world of tears, the holy tender glance of Christ, my Lord, I need. That glance, surcharged with love, consoles me through the years; His loveliness displays foretaste of heaven indeed."
-St. Thérèse of Lisieux
Today's Reflection:
Though heaven is incomprehensible to us living in the world, take time this week to ask the Lord to enlighten you to the immensity of
our eternal inheritance.
