Everybody is familiar with Saint Therese of Lisieux and her little way which seems to put holiness of life within the reach of ordinary people like you and me.
Remember the Baltimore Catechism and the question "why did God make you?"
"God made me to know Him, to love Him, and to serve Him in this world, and to be happy with Him for ever in heaven." In other words, we are made to be saints.
The more I seek God the more I will get to know Him. The more I get to know God, the more I will love Him. The more I love God, the more I will want to serve him and the more I serve God, the closer I will be to becoming a saint.
At the closing of his homily today Deacon Mark said " let us pray in the name of Jesus our Lord and through the power of the Holy Spirit that the "little things" we do will draw us closer to the Father. Amen"
Ste Therese of Lisieux, pray for us and guide us in the way of holiness.
