Prayer – God Never Fails to Understand – St. Therese of Lisieux

February 18, 2012 By Jean Wise




I have not the courage to search through books for beautiful prayers … 
Unable either to say them all or choose between them, I do as a child would do who cannot read — 
I say just what I want to say to God, quite simply, and [God] never fails to understand.
– Saint Thérèse of Lisieux
