“I am of such a nature that fear makes me recoil. With love, I not only advance, I fly!” (St. Therese of Lisieux)
When I feel a little tired and worn down, I think of Christ and try to show him my love. When my vows of poverty, chastity and obedience are a bit demanding, I think of Christ and try to show him my love. When it’s hard to be generous, kind and compassionate, I think of Christ and try to show him my love. This is my motivation. This is what makes me tick. With love for Christ driving my actions, life is not only more bearable, it is sweeter and so much more peaceful and fulfilling. Christ fills my heart and he wants to fill yours as well!
