"My children, I am Saint Therese of Lisieux. I smile through this child at this time, for the world is wondering what she is all about and why. The world is questioning: ‘Why her? Why not me?’ This is sadness in one way, but understandable in another way, for you see, such a Miracle in the world is difficult for man to understand, to comprehend, and yet men want It to belong to them.

There are Many, Many Saints Here in the Heavens Who have spoken through this child, and Who are ready to speak as soon as The Father points to Them.

I want you all now to picture a garden, flowers of all kinds, all colors, all scents. I want you to look at each one of them, enjoy the beauty. And now I say: ‘As you look at this garden, turn to another way. Look at mankind. See the parallel. Men are all different colors, men are all different sizes, and yes, all vocations of the human way.’

Let us walk into the garden. And now I say to you, ‘Choose a flower, one that will mean much to you.’ Some of you will choose a rose. Some will choose a pansy. Some of you might even choose a dandelion, for you will feel the littleness of it. Of course, it is this way in the human way also. Some men stand out as roses in the world, brilliant, bright, glowing, worthwhile, and then there are those who stand out in a small way, unnoticed, and yet in a beautiful way; and then you have, of course, what some men would call the ‘dandelions’.

I want you all to think hard on this. I want you all to feel that no matter what type of flower you feel you are, keep in mind you were created by The Father, He loves you, and Sainthood is available to you.

At the moment of conception, man is given a body, a Soul, a Guardian Angel, and yes, a will: the will to grow physically, mentally, spiritually; the will to decide truth or untruth; the will to accept Faith or deny Faith; the will to love or to not love.

And now I take you back to the garden where We began. Which flower would you call yourself in the way of man? Keep in mind, God gave you a will. You can be a rose, you can be a pansy, a dandelion, or even a jonquil.

There are so many things through This Miracle that men must understand. The beauty of the earth and the beauty of being man, the totalness of living.

Oh, My children, keep in mind, the flower doesn’t have a will, but mankind does. What does the will do for you? Does it not make you something greater than a flower? I would say, ‘Yes.’

And now, I want you to understand that the will that was given to you by God is a Beautiful Gift from God to man. Use it well. Cherish it, and at the end of the physical path, face Him with the will He gave you and say, ‘God, I used it Your Way.’ So be it."
