“May today there be peace within.
May you trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be.
May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith.
May you use those gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you.
May you be content knowing you are a child of God. Let this presence settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love. It is there for each and every one of us.”
- St. Therese de Lisieux
October 3rd is the feast day of St. Therese of the Child Jesus, also know as the Little Flower. Aware that she was dying, St. Therese said "I will spend my heaven doing good on earth. I will let fall a shower of roses.". Therefore, flowers and roses are always present in representations of her.
