Saint Teresa of Avila Scented Prayer Candle - Lavender
The candle reads: "Let nothing disturb you, Let nothing frighten you, All things are passing away: God never changes. Patience obtains all things Whoever has God lacks nothing; God alone suffices"
The Story behind the Inspiration
After my husband converted to the catholic faith, I gift him a plaque with this prayer, he wasn't very familiar with the saints back then and this was his first interaction, St. Theresa of Avila. Even until this day after 5 years of his conversion, he prays this prayer every morning and night since he has it by his bedside. This is one of the most comforting prayers and is one we should all meditate on. If you are feeling stress, hopeless or you don't see a way out this prayer will bring you peace to remind you and reassure that God loves and power surpasses all things, you just need to have Him in your life and everything else will find its place and that God alone suffices, he is the only one that can fill that void, only him.
