Simplicity



Our Lord needs from us neither great deeds nor profound thoughts.

Neither intelligence nor talents.

He cherishes simplicity.

  1. Simple yet so hard to do when our pride gets in the way. Thanks for this "simple" reminder. Good day to you! Cathy

  3. I love this particular picture of St. Therese, because it's the real HER, not an airbrushed, flower filled version that ignores the work there is in attaining this simplicity. Thanks for the simple, but encouraging words!

    Thanks for stopping by!
