Our Holy Mother St. Teresa of Avila was an extremely prayerful person. She said, “We must have a determined determination to never give up prayer.”
This term Determined Determination has been coined by her thoughts on Carmelite spirituality and contemplative prayer. By this she means that we must have a great determination to persevere until the end. So we Carmelites pursue our contemplative life with faith as our guide with a “determined determination”.
The saint is teaching us to become like her, to develop a strong determination in putting God in everything.
