Saint Thérèse of Lisieux (or Saint Thérèse of the Child) was a French Carmelite nun. She is also known as "The Little Flower of Jesus."
She felt an early call to religious life, and overcoming various obstacles, in 1888 at the early age of 15, became a nun and joined two of her older sisters in the cloistered Carmelite community of Lisieux, Normandy. After nine years as a Carmelite religious, having fulfilled various offices such as sacristan and assistant to the novice mistress, and having spent the last eighteen months in Carmel in a night of faith, she died of tuberculosis at the age of 24.
The impact of The Story of a Soul, a collection of her autobiographical manuscripts, printed and distributed a year after her death to an initially very limited audience, was great, and she rapidly became one of the most popular saints of the twentieth century.

I love my little saint
Wow,
I finished this yesterday and have since recognized the complete fallacy of my life and thinking. I now pray all day: "No thank you (to the world), I love you (to the world), God bless you (to the world) and our souls will be rewarded in Heaven.
I know this sounds crazy but my anxiety is lessened considerably and I am leaving my calling to the priesthood to live a simple life of worship and prayer.
In Christ,
William
