St. Thérèse: God’s Merciful Love
Daniel Chowning O.C.D.
The spirituality of Saint Thérèse is indeed a very rich one. She has much to say to us about the importance of confidence, patience, acts of love, surrender, and perseverance in the midst of spiritual darkness. There are many fine studies that analyze the different aspects of her personality and doctrine, yet the foundation of all of Thérèse’s spirituality rests on her experience and contemplation of God, the God of Jesus Christ, a God of love, but especially the God of mercy. We learn how this experience of God as Merciful Love is the key to her entire doctrine.
