Now you will never be without the book that St. Therese of Lisieux loved and knew by heart. <p/> This book speaks to the soul of every true Christian, reminding him of the fleeting nature of earthly joy as opposed to the eternity of happiness with God. Fr. Garrigou-Lagrange asserted that the true mysticism of which it speaks is accessible to all, if they are willing to follow the way of humility, the cross, continual prayer, and docility to the Holy Ghost.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Thomas a Kempis was born at Kempen, Germany, circa 1380.
