[@Catholicguy-qs3ng]

St Theresa is highly revered in the Catholic Church as she also taught the nine levels of prayer with the first level being meditation (beginner) and the final stage is unitive where the will and intellect are one with God The tenth level is regarded as angelic prayer which is achieved after looking at God face to face🙏🙏,is in the afterlife She even recounts that the demons were afraid of her during the unitive stage as she has already achieved Christian Perfection 🙏🙏 God bless

[@rk5782]

5 - take time frequently with the one that loves us 5;30 - the important thing is not to think much but to love much. And so do that which best stirs you to love 9 - union with God consists in the surrender of our will 12:55 before prayer endeavor to realize whose presence you are approaching and to whom you are about to speak 14;30 souls that do not practice prayer are like people whose limbs are paralyzed 14:55 prayer is an act of love. Words are not needed

Hi Rebecca, I would love to read that but I can't seem to locate it online. Is it in a particular book? - I have her Interior Castle. If you could point me in the right direction or send me a PDF I can certainly read it. With best wishes
