Teresa benedicta of the cross




Let us live in the light knowing that the light of heaven's love has restored us to life


Here are a few words from Teresa Benedicta of the Cross (Edith Stein)

"To suffer and to be happy although suffering,
to have one's feet on the earth,

To walk on the dirty and rough paths of this earth and yet
To be enthroned with Christ at the Father's right hand,

To laugh and cry with the children of this world
And ceaselessly sing the praises of God with the choirs of angels

This is the life of the Christian until the morning of eternity breaks forth.
"- E.S.
