While we are all invited by Jesus to become a saint, typically we don't always possess an intense desire to lead a holy life.

Being a saint entails much pain and sacrifice, and often we simply want to be comfortable.

St. Teresa of Avila challenges us to get out of our comfort zone and stir within us a desire for perfection.

Here is a prayer asking God to let St. Teresa of Avila inspire in us a desire for holiness, that we may turn our lives around and follow Jesus Christ.
