In the ninth of the eleven part series, "The Spirituality of St. Therese of Lisieux," Archbishop Fulton Sheen reflects on her imitation of Christ. Our Lord transferred onto Himself our sufferings: physical, mental, and moral (or guilt). St Therese desired to be a Victim for the sins of the world, as our Lord Himself did to save the souls of others. To offer oneself as a victim to Divine Love is not to offer oneself to sweetness and to consolation but to every bitterness, for love lives only by sacrifice; and the more a soul wills to be surrendered to love, the more must she must surrendered to sacrifice. This the ninth of eleven talks given on St. Therese the Little Flower by the great Archbishop Fulton Sheen in Ireland at a Carmelite monastery in 1973, on the occasion of the Centenary of her birth. Hear the beloved Archbishop as he speaks on the spirituality of Saint Therese of Lisieux, who was called the greatest saint of the century.
