Thanks for your clarification and explanation of my favorite saint. St. Teresa is the saint for our time.

Thank you so much for this. It has been so transforming. God is using your clarity and instruction to purify and draw me. Praised be Jesus Christ!

I've been praying like this for years and felt an overwhelming guilt as if I had to actually speak out verbally with our Lord. Then it dawned on me that people who were deaf mute would be praying like this. I realised i felt more into praying like this, but still had scruples about it a sort of guilt.because I felt my prayers were meaningless, because I would pray this way during my work, going walks, in the car,on the bus,out shopping etc.. I felt i was drawn through guilt to visit Jesus more and more in adoration of the blessed sacrament. Sometimes I felt that I had to pray my daily devotions out loud in order to get rid of the guilt, goodness gracious it was very draining to have to repeat my St Bridgette prayer, rosary novena's litanies and chaplets etc . I use to love reading, but due to mental illness and chronic anxiety I lost that desire,of being engrossed in a book and being part of the story, strangely enough I imagined that I was right there whatever I read. I hate the fact that I cannot retain or remember anything that I read, which I find so upsetting, because I would love to teach my younger relatives and friends kids, like a kind of baby sitting storytime I'm going through spiritual dryness and feel I need to be at the blessed sacrament daily for at least three hours a day. I think I'm drawn into a deeper relationship with Jesus to calm my mind and hopefully be able to be blessed with enough knowledge to understanding and remember what God wants to use me for. Please pray for my journey with Jesus through Mary to be fulfilled to do the will of God and that I desire what he desires from my life heart etc.. I really am nothing, uneducated.clumsy and don't really know how to explain situations without getting myself in a muddle. I feel lost alone empty and void of love, although I know I must endure this journey as penance to save souls in some way,or maybe just to save my own wretched soul. Lord in your mercy grant me the desire of surrendering my will completely over to you 🙏

This is perfect for Catholics who are stressed out about the political turmoil we're in.

Thank you for explaining mental prayer.

So helpful to know how St. Theresa had to deal with the people and powers who fought against God. Gives insight into our God and how muchHe loves us and who can relate to us if we let go of fear and learn how wonderfully we are made!

Thank you! It's great.

This is a beautiful gift for all ages. Come Lord Jesus’

Thank you for this wonderful gift and may God continue to bless your wonderful work 🙏😔💖🕊....

Santa Teresa Sanchez Blázquez de Cepeda de la Cuevas Dávila y Ahumada , doctora de la Iglesia , una monja que se adelantó a sus tiempos !!!

Wonderful talk. Very well organised. Blessings

"The Lord" VS "Our Lord" there is a difference and I cringe and my heart aches when I hear people say the wrong one. Do some research into what I am talking about and it will catapult your contemplative life if you choose the correct one. There is so much more that is being hidden from us and proper contemplation will lead us to those hidden gems... Peace.
