Teresa of Jesus




This woman is my patron - my middle name is Teresa.

 Let nothing disturb thee,
Nothing affright thee
All things are passing;
God never changeth;
Patient endurance
Attaineth to all things;
Who God possesseth
In nothing is wanting;
Alone God sufficeth.

- St. Teresa of Avila,  
 Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, trans.
