Never do anything which you could not do in the sight of all.

Teresa of Avila

Let there be no disappointment when obedience keeps you busy in outward tasks. If it sends you to the kitchen, remember that the Lord walks among the pots and pans.
TERESA OF AVILA

Disappoint Obedience Remember Yourself
Each of us has a soul, but we forget to value it. We don’t remember that we are creatures made in the image of God. We don’t understand the great secrets hidden inside of us.
TERESA OF AVILA

Forget Greatness Hide Image Remember Secret Soul Understand Value
The feeling remains that God is on the journey, too.
TERESA OF AVILA

Feeling God Journey
Love draws forth love.
TERESA OF AVILA

Love One Liner
He who has God finds he is lacking nothing.
TERESA OF AVILA

God Himself Satisfaction
Do you know when people really become spiritual? It is when they become the slaves of God and are branded with His sign, which is the sign of the Cross, in token that they have given Him their freedom.
TERESA OF AVILA

Brand Freedom God Himself People Slave Spiritual
It constantly happens that the Lord permits a soul to fall so that it may grow humbler.
TERESA OF AVILA

Constant Fall God Growth Humble Soul
What a great favor God does to those He places in the company of good people!
TERESA OF AVILA

Consider seriously how quickly people change, and how little trust is to be had in them; and hold fast to God, Who does not change.
TERESA OF AVILA

Change Hold People Quick Serious
Christ has no body now but mine. He prays in me, works in me, looks through my eyes, speaks through my words, works through my hands, walks with my feet and loves with my heart.
TERESA OF AVILA

Body God Hands Heart Love Myself Prayer Walk Work
Everything seems to me to pass so quickly that we must concentrate on how to die rather than on how to live. How sweet it is to die if one has lived on the Cross with Christ.
TERESA OF AVILA

Death Live Oneself Quick
The life of the spirit is not our life, but the life of God within us.
TERESA OF AVILA

God Life Spirit
Our souls may lose their peace and even disturb other people’s, if we are always criticizing trivial actions – which often are not real defects at all, but we construe them wrongly through our ignorance of their motives.
TERESA OF AVILA

Action Disturb Ignorance Lose Motivational Ourselves Peace Soul Wrong
Christ moves along the pots and pans.
TERESA OF AVILA

God Move
We need no wings to go in search of Him, but have only to look upon Him present within us.
TERESA OF AVILA

Himself Need Search Wings
In a state of grace, the soul is like a well of limpid water, from which flow only streams of clearest crystal. Its works are pleasing both to God and man, rising from the River of Life, beside which it is rooted like a tree.
TERESA OF AVILA

Crystal God Grace Life Man Rise River State Tree Water
