May 08, 2012 St Therese on expectations May 08, 2012/ Adam Sinnett Don’t think that to follow the path of love means to follow the path of rest, full of sweetness and consolations. It is completely the opposite. To offer oneself as a victim to Love means to give oneself up without any reservations to whatever God pleases, which means to expect to share with Jesus his humiliations, his chalice of bitterness. — St. Therese of Lisieux
