Remember, little Marie, that this sweet Jesus is there in the Tabernacle expressly for you and you alone. Remember that he burns with the desire to enter your heart. Do not listen to Satan. Laugh him to scorn, and go without fear to receive Jesus, the God of peace and of love. In truth it is impossible that a heart which can only find rest in contemplation of the Tabernacle- and yours is such, you tell me- could so far offend Our Lord as not to be able to receive him. What does offend Jesus, what wounds Him to the Heart is want of confidence. Pray much that the best portion of your life may not be overshadowed by idle fears. We have only brief moments in life to spend for the Glory of God. and well does Satan it.
St Therese
