Jubilees

"Prayer, in my opinion, is nothing else than an intimate sharing between friends; it means taking time frequently to be alone with Him who we know loves us."
(St. Teresa - Life, 8, 5)

"Let us desire to be occupied in prayer not for the sake of our enjoyment but so as to have the strength to serve."
(St. Teresa -Interior Castle VII :4 11)

"If contemplating, praying, taking care of the sick, helping with household chores, and working even at the lowliest task are all ways of serving the (Divine) Guest who comes to be with us … what difference does it make whether we serve in one way or the other?"
(St. Teresa -Way of Perfection)

"This union with God’s will is the union I have desired all my life; it is…the one that is clearest and safest."
(St. Teresa -Interior Castle V:5)

"The truth is that the treasure (God) lies within our very selves."
(St. Teresa -Interior Castle V:1)

"The safest way is to want only what God wants."
(St. Teresa -Interior Castle VI:9)
