We look at her life of prayer and explain how she is indeed a great mystic, even though she has very few extraordinary experiences. Through the gift of wisdom, St Th\u00e9r\u00e8se is brought to the point of desiring to suffer for the salvation of souls, and ultimately to imitate her cruciform Lord by dying as a martyr of love. The term <i>martyrdom of love\u00a0<\/i>\u2013 which is very different from bloody martyrdom and white martyrdom \u2013 is used by St John of the Cross and St Francis de Sales (both Doctors of the Universal Church). Even though Th\u00e9r\u00e8se has tuberculosis, it is actually an impetuous wound of love which tears through the thin veil which is keeping her soul from flying off to God. At the age of 24, and with an ardent desire to die as a martyr of love, Th\u00e9r\u00e8se\u2019s desire is finally fulfilled. Love tears through the veil of her life and carries her off to the Bosom of her most Beloved Spouse where she now intercedes for us, as she says, \u201cI will do greater works from heaven.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"featured_media":2030,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[60],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-1204","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-books-resources","first","instock","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.claritas-st.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/1204","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.claritas-st.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.claritas-st.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.claritas-st.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1204"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.claritas-st.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2030"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.claritas-st.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1204"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.claritas-st.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=1204"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.claritas-st.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=1204"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.claritas-st.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=1204"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
