In her teachings on prayer, St. Teresa of Ávila emphasized “determined determination” as an unwavering commitment to journey with God. This is more than a simple intention; it is a resolute decision to follow the path of prayer and surrender wholeheartedly, embracing all challenges. Teresa’s path is a dynamic ascent in prayer, from vocal prayer to the profound union of spiritual marriage with Christ, reflecting a life dedicated to love and service of God and neighbor.
