| I'm not sure that St. Theresa ever said any such prayer since I think
| she would have addressed God directly, but I still like it and find it
| comforting.
[Lee]:
Yes, she would in pray except directly to God; I would call that a
benediction or blessing, praying in her heart that God would grant the
benediction she's pronouncing to/over those in her life or around her.
And, another question: Which St. Theresa? There are two, one of whom is
called "The Little Flower," and one who is Theresa of Avilla, I think. And
if Mother Theresa is canonized, then there will be three. I'm not RC, but I
was when I was young.
Actually, I have to admit I love the huge Crucifixes the nuns used to wear
back and that went out of style in the mid 1970's, I think. I'd *Love* to
get one of those!! :-)
I leave you with the famous Irish blessing:
May the road rise to meet you;
May the wind be always at your back;
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
May the rain fall soft upon your fields;
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.
Lee :-)
