Feast of St. Teresa of Avila
St. Teresa of Avila

St. Teresa of Avila says: “Praise be to Jesus.”

“Today, please make the comparison of the spiritual heart – the soul – with a kite soaring high in the sky. The kite can climb as high as the wind allows but it drifts away if it is not tethered by a string held by someone on earth.”

“So it is with the heart and soul of a person. It can climb to great heights spiritually – carried upon the wind of free will in cooperation with the Holy Spirit. But the heart, too, will lose meaningful direction if it is not tethered to God's Divine Will.”

“You can readily see this is the world today; many leaders lead astray, for they disregard God's Will and His Commandments – most especially His Commandments of Love.”
