“From my early childhood
I had experienced an
intense desire to love
God” autobiography of
Blessed Mariam Thresia.
Her unquenchable thirst
for God was expressed in
several ways. |
|
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
|
|
Meditation on the Lord’s
passion kneeling on
gravel - strewn floor
with outstretched arms. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sleeping with a
stone for
pillow, on bare
floor strewn
with glass
pieces,
tribulus
and gravel. |
|
|
 |
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
Even at a tender
age Thresia
installed
Blessed Virgin
Mary as the
mother of her
soul and
body.Blessed
Mother herself
taught her how
to recite the
rosary. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Infant Jesus
playing mahout
with Thresia as
the elephant!
Her best loved
entertainment
was to crawl on
her hands and
knees bearing a
heavy stone on
her back
meditating on
Jesus carrying
the cross. |
|
|
 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Though Thresia
had little
formal
education, the
parish priest
entrusted her to
teach catechism
to the children
in the parish. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
" I don't
care for worldly fame. I
desire so much to enjoy
heaven." |
