“Ah! Poor women, how they are misunderstood! And yet they love God in much larger numbers than men do and during the Passion of our Lord, women had more courage than the apostles since they braved the insults of the soldiers and dared to dry the adorable Face of Jesus. It is undoubtably because of this that He allows misunderstanding to be their lot on earth, since He chose it for Himself. In heaven, He will show that His thoughts are not men’s thoughts, for then the last will be first.”

- Saint Therese of Lisieux, A Story of a Soul, slyly suggesting not only does Christ suffer in solidarity with women but also that women will be elevated over men in heaven.

#I love finding feminism in unlikely places #she did grow up with four older sisters too #this is in like 1890’s #so right at the cusp of first wave feminism #backed up by scripture no less #Saint Therese of Lisieux

Love proves itself by deeds, so how am I to show my love? Great deeds are forbidden me. The only way I can prove my love is by scattering flowers, and these flowers are every little sacrifice, every glance and word, and the doing of my small deeds for the sake of Love.

this is a private post and a prayer request

I've been dreaming about floristry for a long time, did a course, applied for jobs and got rejected every time. It put me in a dark place and made me doubt myself. Today I prayed the Miraculous Invocation to St. Therese because it feels like I need a miracle here and went to yet another florist to ask if they're looking. They said they'll think about it and let me know. Please pray for me.

"Jeter des fleurs, c'est t'offrir en prémices

Les plus légers soupirs, les plus grandes douleurs

Mes peines et mes joies, mes petits sacrifices

Voilà mes fleurs."

-Sainte Thérèse De Lisieux

Happy feast of Saint Thérèse!🌹
