Mother TeresaI have never had clarity; what I have always had is trust. So I will pray that you will trust God.
Mother TeresaWe must love one another as God loves each one of us. To be able to love, we need a clean heart. Prayer is what gives us a clean heart. The fruit of prayer is a deepening of faith and the fruit of faith is love. The fruit of love is service, which is compassion in action.
Mother TeresaIf you are hungry to hear the voice of God, you will hear. To hear, you have to cut out all other things.
Mother TeresaFaith is a gift of God. Without it there would be no life. And our work, to be fruitful, and to be all for God, and to be beautiful, has to be built of faith. Faith in Christ who has said, I was hungry, I was naked, I was sick, and I was homeless, and you ministered to me! On these words of His all our work is based.
