This unpetalled rose is the faithful image,
Divine Child,
Of the heart that wants to sacrifice itself for you unreservedly
at each moment.
Lord, on your altars more than one new rose
Likes to shine.
It gives itself to you but I dream of something else:
To be unpetalled!... "

Saint Therese of Lisieux
(Poem no. 51, Stanza 2: "An Unpetalled Rose")

Here's a Carmelite quote that speaks to me when that anxiety hits: "when I start thinking about tomorrow, I'm afraid of my fickle nature; I feel sadness and worry take hold in my heart... but I really want to be faithful to you, God, in the midst of suffering and trials like this. I've only got today."

Take what you like and leave the rest. I'll go light a candle for you now.

In you I have everything, the earth and even Heaven.
The Flower that I pick, O my King,
Is You!…"

We could call her the Doctor of Simplicity! decided that was her thing, though... he could have copied and said something like "I choose all." What a great reflection, Jolz. Thank you so much for sharing this!
