Teresa of Ávila

“Teresa’s Bookmark” that was found in her own prayer book after her death:

Let nothing disturb you.
Let nothing upset you.
Everything changes.
God alone is unchanging.
With patience all things are possible.
Whoever has God lacks nothing.
God alone is enough.

Teresa of Ávila, “Nada te turbe,” from Starr, Passionate Mystic, 24.
