“I have often  thought with wonder of the great goodness of God; and my soul has  rejoiced in the contemplation of His great magnificence and mercy. May  He be blessed for ever! For I see clearly that He has not omitted to  reward me, even in this life, for every one of my good desires.”  St. Teresa D’Avila, Autobiography. (As translated from the Spanish by David Lewis in “The Life of St. Teresa of Jesus of the Order of Our Lady of Carmel, Written by Herself”, compared with the original autograph text and re-edited by Very Rev. Benedict Zimmerman, O.C.D., pub. 1916)
