Daily Lectio Divina: Teresa of Avila

Daily Lectio Divina: Teresa of Avila

Episode 576

In this episode of the guided lectio divina podcast, we’re continuing our series on Gaining Wisdom using selections from A Little Daily Wisdom: Christian Women Mystics by Carmen Acevedo Butcher. Today we’re using a selection from Teresa of Avila’s The Way of Perfection.

Here’s what a friendship with our dearest Companion, our holiest God, is like. In it, intimacy is always possible and can’t be stopped, except on our side, for God is always open to us. Nothing can come between us and God, our Spouse, and we can be alone with God whenever we want, as long as we want. All we have to do is desire it.
