Like her [Mary], let us be full of zeal to go in haste to give Jesus to others. She was full of grace when, at the Annunciation, she received Jesus. Like her. we too become full of grace every time we receive Holy Communion. It is the same Jesus whom she received and whom we receive at Mass. As soon as she received Him. she went with haste to give Him to John. For us also. As soon as we receive Jesus in Holy Communion, let us go in haste to give Him to our sisters, to our poor, to the sick, to the dying, to the lepers, to the unwanted, and the unloved. By this we make Jesus present in the world today.
Mother TeresaWe realize that what we are accomplishing is a drop in the ocean. But if this drop were not in the ocean, it would be missed.
Mother TeresaGo out into the world today and love the people you meet. Let your presence light new light in the hearts of people.
Mother TeresaI trust that God wouldn't give me more than I can handle. I just wish he didn't have such faith in me.
Mother TeresaThey too, are created by the same loving hand of God which Created us...It is our duty to Protect Them and to promote their well-being.
Mother TeresaWe cannot separate our lives from the Eucharist; the moment we do, something breaks. People ask, 'Where do the sisters get the joy and the energy to do what they are doing?' The Eucharist involves more than just receiving; it also involves satisfying the hunger of Christ. He says, 'Come to Me.' He is hungry for souls.
