Soeur Thérèse de l'Enfant-Jésus et de la Sainte Face by Saint de Lisieux Thérèse
"Soeur Thérèse de l'Enfant-Jésus et de la Sainte Face" by Saint de Lisieux Thérèse is a spiritual autobiography written in the late 19th century. This work recounts the life and reflections of Thérèse Martin, a cloistered Carmelite nun, who aims to express her relationship with God, her childhood experiences, and the spiritual insights she gained during her short life. The narrative presents an intimate portrayal of her love for Jesus and her
path to sainthood, focusing on themes of humility, trust in God, and the beauty of a simple, childlike faith. The beginning of "Histoire d'une âme" introduces Thérèse's motivations for writing her story, highlighting her desire to share the mercies of God that have shaped her life. She reflects on her early childhood, including her strong bond with her mother and her deep affection for her family. Through her memories, Thérèse emphasizes the simple yet profound insights she received from God, such as the appreciation for each person's unique role in God's creation. This introductory portion sets the stage for a deeper exploration of her spiritual journey and the personal, heartfelt lessons she learned from her life experiences.
