“Prayer for Thérèse was not for the purpose of seeking consolations; prayer was her consolation.” So beautiful. Thank you!

This is beautifully written. And it feels like a direct answer to something I prayed for help with this morning. Thank you, and God bless...

I'm not Catholic, but I've heard of this saint. I was not aware she suffered so much darkness she thought of leaving though. But she didn't. That's inspiring.

Thanks for reading our post and commenting. The darkness she suffered is not as widely spoken about, but she wrote about it during the final stage of her life. She really lived in solidarity with anyone who knows such darkness intimately.
