[1]St. Thérèse of Lisieux
“Our Lord … showed me the book of nature, and I understood that every flower created by Him is beautiful, that the brilliance of the rose and the whiteness of the lily do not lessen the perfume of the violet or the sweet simplicity of the daisy. I understood that if all the lowly flowers wished to be roses, nature would lose its springtide beauty, and the fields would no longer be enameled with lovely hues.” (St. Thérèse of Lisieux—of the Child Jesus—Virgin and Doctor of the Church, Story of a Soul)
The Memorial of St. Thérèse of the Child Jesus, Virgin and Doctor of the Church (1873 – 1897) is October 1.
