On this blog, I will share different things I have learned as an OCDS Carmelite. 1st: Let us remember that we are in the presence of God, wherever we are! 2nd: You will find info on each Carmelite Saint & Blessed, under the archive of 2008. You will find prayers under the archive of 2007. Please Enjoy! The vocation to the Teresian Carmel is a commitment to live a life of allegiance to Jesus Christ.
The Seal of Carmel
“With Zeal have I been zealous for the Lord God of hosts.” (1 Kings 19:10)
The 12 Points of The Rule:
Obedience, Chastity, Poverty, Recollection, Mental Prayer, Divine Office, Chapter, Abstinence from Meat, Manual Labor, Silence, Humility, & Supererogation.

Carmelites...
Carmelites are about maneuvering through darkness -- the darkness of sin, disillusionment, disappointment, discouragement, feelings of being unloved, unappreciated, unimportant or unworthy -- the darkness of a lack of self-worth, addictive flight patterns, fatigue -- the heavy destructive darkness that I can earn my salvation, and live off my own resources -- the deceptive and blinding darkness of false gods I've created and unreal expectations -- maneuvering and journeying with faith that there is light hidden within the human experience, because of the en-flesh-ment of God in Jesus and his absolute embrace of our human experience. Carmelites believe in our life, ministry and prayer that deep within lies the fire of God -- even if it feels like cooling embers, the fire never dies -- because the human soul is the spark of God.
