ENCOURAGEMENT FROM THE CREATORS OF THE CLOSET CHALLENGE:
LEAH DARROW AND SARAH KROGER
Simplicity is the fruit of holiness. Pope Paul VI says,“The world calls for and expects from us simplicity of life, the spirit of prayer, charity towards all, especially towards the lowly and the poor, obedience and humility… Without this mark of holiness, our word will have difficulty in touching the heart of modern man. It risks being vain and sterile.” (Pope Paul VI)
St. Therese Novena†
DAY FIVE
Loving God, You gave St. Therese the gift of forgiving others even when she felt hurt and betrayed. Help me to be able to forgive others who have wounded me, especially…
I try to forgive, Lord. Help me to forgive 70 times 7 times!
I am humble, Lord. Give me more humility!
I see you, Lord. Help me to see you more!
I trust you, Lord. Help me to trust you more!
I love you, Lord. Help me to love you more!Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be
St. Therese Pray for us!
