THE PEACE AND TRANQUILITY OF LIVING IN GOD'S GRACE

 — No, it is not death that will come for me, but God Himself. Death is not a phantom, nor a horrible specter, as it is depicted in pictures.

It is written in the catechism that death is the separation of the soul and the body—nothing more. Well then: I do not fear a separation that is to unite me with God for all eternity.

Saint Thérèse of the Child Jesus.
