Recordándo a Teresa, la peregrina

My favorite image of Teresa of Avila, la peregrina

found in front of her convent

The walls of Avila, España

In your hand

I place my heart,

Body, life and soul,

Deep feelings and affections mine,

Spouse--Redeemer sweet,

Myself offered now to you,

What do you want of me?

[from the poem "In the Hands of God" by Teresa of Avila]

Monasterio de la Encarnación, Avila

Teresa's convent, right outside the Walls
