St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross – Edith Stein (1891 – 1942)
“…when night comes, and retrospect shows that everything was patchwork and much that one had planned left undone, when so many things rouse shame and regret, then take all as is, lay it in God’s hands, and offer it up to Him. In this way we will be able to rest in Him, actually to rest and to begin the new day like a new life.”
-St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross
Today’s Reflection:
Ah, thank you St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross! What now may we “lay at God’s hands and offer up to Him,” that we might “rest and begin the new day like a new life?”
