In this homily, Fr. Miguel reflects on the life and teachings of St. Teresa of Avila—one of the great Doctors of the Church and a master of prayer. Through her example, we learn that prayer is not optional but essential for holiness and salvation.
Fr. Miguel explains how prayer and living the Gospel must go hand in hand: prayer deepens our love of God, and living the Gospel strengthens our prayer. Drawing from St. Teresa’s struggles and conversion, he reminds us that even the saints had weaknesses but allowed God’s grace to transform them.
