Lorens Pasch - Artist


 " Once, when we were together, Therese laughingly took hold of my hand, printed in ink on my fingernail these words - "attachment to earthly things". She insisted that I remain branded in this way for some time..."

Remain a little child...

Painting by George Clausen

 

"Let no one believe that if I were to be cured it would throw me off my course or destroy my little plans. Not in the least! Age means nothing in the eyes of God, and I'd manage to remain a little child, even were I to live for a long time."

Why I Love You O Mary...

Media Art by Lindy

 O beloved Mother, despite my littleness,
Like you I possess The All-Powerful within me.
But I don't tremble in seeing my weakness:
The treasures of a mother belong to her child,
And I am your child, O my dearest Mother.
Aren't your virtues and your love mine too?
So when the white Host comes into my heart, 
Jesus, your Sweet Lamb, thinks he is resting in you!... 

 

Why I Love You, O Mary!
Stanza No. 5

God's little dew drop...



"To be His,
 we must remain little, 
little like a drop of dew.
Oh! How few are the souls
who aspire to remain little
in this way."

Strewing flowers...

Painting by Victor Gilbert


"I shall strew flowers before Your throne. I shall not come upon one without scattering its petals before You. While I am strewing my flowers, I shall sing, for could one cry while doing such a joyous action? I shall sing even when I must gather my flowers in the midst of thorns, and my song will be all the more melodious in proportion to the length and sharpness of the thorns."

St. Therese of Lisieux

Littleness...

Painting by Winslow Homer
"God would never 
inspire me 
with desires
 which cannot
 be realized; 
so in spite
 of my 
littleness,
 I can hope
 to be a saint."
St. Therese of Lisieux

 of Your love."
