October 15: ST. TERESA OF ÁVILA: God Alone Suffices
Catholic Sprouts: Daily Podcast for Catholic Kids
St. Teresa of Ávila spent twenty comfortable years as a nun before a statue of the suffering Christ stopped her in her tracks. Charming and popular but only half-committed to prayer, Teresa fell to her knees before an image of Christ's Passion and realized how much of her faith had been comfortable half-heartedness. From that day she began to speak to Jesus the way a friend speaks to a friend, going on to found seventeen reformed Carmelite convents and write some of the greatest books on prayer in Christian history. "She began to speak to Jesus the way a friend speaks to a friend — honestly, from the inside, with the voice no one else can hear." Today's challenge is just the start.
