Thursday 26th week of Ordinary Time

The Little Flower



St. Therese was a Carmlite nun who lived a cloistered life in an isolated convent in Normandy. 


And she thought to herself,

“What can I possibly do?”


I cannot be a martyr;

I am not a priest.  

I cannot teach or preach.


What part can I play in the Body of Christ?


And then one day she read about Love in the letter to the Corinthians;

Being the greatest gift of all!


And she had found that her mission was to Love!


We may not be anyone famous or powerful or talented. 


But that does not matter;

For we can all Love!
