About this listen
"If God grants my desires, my heaven will be spent on earth until the end of time. Yes, I will spend my heaven doing good on earth.... I will return! I will come down!"
Saint Therese of Lisiuex is one of the most powerful saints of the 20th century. We have never prayed for the intercession of another saint who lived so close to our time. She died in 1897 at the age of 24, and was canonized in 1925.
When she died, she was virtually unknown, even in her own community. Within two years of her death, the power of her intercession began to be felt all over Europe. Prayers and novenas were made to her for favors, which were answered in abundance, usually preceded by the reception of a flower.
She called herself the "Little Flower of Jesus", a name which has remained with her until today. The swiftness of time in which devotion to this saint grew would be called, in secular terms, a phenomenon. We call it a miracle.
