We are making our way now on Day 12 of Lent! St. Thérèse reminds us that
all our sacrifices help Christ to be better known to those around us. All of our acts of love are a prayer – a gift
to help Jesus be more known, so that souls may be saved and spend eternity with
Him in heaven. Your efforts of little
flowers make a big difference!
In
the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Lord Jesus, we
love you! Help us to persevere in our Little
Flower acts of love and sacrifice. Help
us to realize how much a little act of love can make a big difference in someone’s
life.
St. Thérèse teaches
us:
“There
is one ONLY THING to do here below: to love Jesus, to win souls for Him so that
He may be loved. Let us seize with jealous care every least opportunity of self
sacrifice. Let us refuse Him nothing - He does so want our love!” – VI letter to her sister Celine
Lord
Jesus, thank you for your great love. Thank you for always helping us to persevere
in our acts of love and sacrifice, Jesus!
Our
Father …
Hail
Mary …
Glory
Be …
St.
Thérèse, pray for us!
Today’s Little Flower activity: Call
someone to brighten their day. Maybe
this could be an elderly relative or someone who may be lonely. (Color in a flower for Jesus when your mom or
dad has seen that it is completed!)
