The Prayer of St. Teresa of Avila

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. Raise your thoughts, look up to Heaven, do not torment yourself about anything, let nothing trouble you.
Follow Jesus Christ with all your heart and whatever happens, let nothing frighten you. Do you see the glory of the world? It is a vain glory; there is nothing stable about it, it all passes.
Aspire to what is heavenly, it lasts forever; faithful and rich in promises, God does not change. Love Him as He deserves, He is immense Goodness; but there is no true love without patience.
Let confidence and a lively Faith uphold the soul; he who believes and hopes obtains all things. Even if he is attacked by all of hell, he who possesses God will foil its attacks. Even if he is abandoned and suffers crosses and misfortunes, if God is his treasure, he will want for nothing.
Away with you, then, worldly goods; away with you, vain happiness; even if you lose all, God alone suffices.
Amen.

St. Luke was very probably born of pagan parents at Antioch. Converted, he became the missionary companion of St. Paul, who called him "the most dear physician" and "his fellow laborer." After the death of his teacher, according to reliable authority, he preached the Gospel in Achaia, where he died at a ripe old age. He wrote a Gospel and the Acts of the Apostles.
