Therese of Lisieux - Lifting One's Foot To Climb The Ladder Of Holiness

Saint Thérèse of Lisieux, affectionately known as the Little Flower, is one of the most beloved saints of the Catholic Church. 

Her spirituality, often called the "Little Way," has inspired countless souls to seek holiness not through grand deeds, but through small acts of love and trust in God's mercy. 

She once wrote, "I would like to find an elevator which would raise me to Jesus, for I am too small to climb the rough stairway of perfection." 

In her simplicity, she taught us that striving for sanctity is not about scaling the heights with our own strength but about lifting our foot in trust and allowing God to raise us. This is the essence of climbing the ladder of holiness.
