Just my experience. Other people havd seen or received actual roses, like in his thread.

At any rate, i receive a lot of blessings from God, so I’m thankful.

For some she showers spiritual Roses of fragrance of prayers and bring us close to Jesus ,i guess weak people like me need’s some sign initially but later we know the saints work their way to bring us close to Jesus and we come to a point in life ,no longer need such signs but simple faith and trust like a child

She loved flowers and saw herself as the “little flower of Jesus,” who gave glory to God by just being her beautiful little self among all the other flowers in God’s garden. Because of this beautiful analogy, the title “little flower” remained with St. Therese.

Her inspiration and powerful presence from heaven touched many people very quickly. She was canonized by Pope Pius XI on May 17, 1925. Had she lived, she would have been only 52 years old when she was declared a Saint.

“My mission - to make God loved - will begin after my death,” she said. “I will spend my heaven doing good on earth. I will let fall a shower of roses.” Roses have been described and experienced as Saint Therese’s signature. Countless millions have been touched by her intercession and imitate her “little way.” She has been acclaimed “the greatest saint of modern times.” In 1997, Pope John Paul II declared St. Therese a Doctor of the Church - the only Doctor of his pontificate - in tribute to the powerful way her spirituality has influenced people all over the world.

The message of St. Therese is beautiful, inspiring, and simple. Please visit the areas in this section of the Web site to learn more about this wonderful Saint.

The problem is, it makes me jealous of those that do receive roses and makes me think I must not be praying properly or something.

In fact your prayers and maturity of faith is much more than mine or others ,so perhaps you don’t need them,a holy jealousy that’s ok .because one soul differs from another so Jesus know ours hearts. 1 Corinthians 15:41 There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; indeed, star differs from star in glory.so i guess your more blessed to receive spiritually ,much more than physical roses.God Bless

1 Corinthians 15:19 If for this life only we have hoped in Christ, we are of all people most to be pitied.
