The Little Flower Of Jesus

You know well enough that Our Lord does not look so much at the greatness of our actions, nor even at their difficulty, but at the love with which we do them.” These profound words were written by a great Doctor of the Church, St. Thérèse of the Child Jesus, who was no more than 24 years old when she passed away. The young saint taught the faithful that they they could serve God intimately through small actions for as long as they were done with a purity of heart.
