I would like Jesus to be your close friend, in whom you could place your weary heart full of suffering. Who could measure, my dear old man, the size and amount of worries that burden you, more than our Lord, who penetrates into the depths and who can lovingly heal the wounds whose depth you do not even know? Oh, father, how your life would change if you went to him often as a friend…
(Teresa of Los Andes, letter to her father, November 26, 1919)
