LET NOTHING DISTURB YOU
So wrote Teresa of Avila...
"Let nothing disturb you
Let nothing alarm you
While all things are passing
God is unchanging
Be patient and you will gain everything
With God in your heart nothing is lacking
God alone suffices"
As we become older, it dawns on us that
we worry too much, scurry too much, while
seeking happiness or fulfillment. We come to
realize that we cannot achieve enough or buy
enough to continually satisfy our wants and needs.
We do not need more of things. We need more
of God.
