[Jesus said,] “[W]hoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will never enter it.”

—Luke 18:17 (NRSV)

“I understood that Our Lord’s love is revealed as well in the simplest soul who doesn’t resist His grace in anything, as in the most sublime of souls. In fact, since the essence of love is to bring oneself low, if every soul were like the souls of the holy Doctors who have shed light on the Church through the clarity of their doctrine, it seems that God wouldn’t come down low enough by coming only as far as their great hearts. But He created the child who doesn’t know anything and only cries weakly.” —St. Thérèse of Lisieux

Some days I feel like a theologian, Lord. Other days, I’m a little child. Thanks for loving me either way.
