Let nothing perturb you, nothing frighten you. All things pass. God does not change. Patience achieves everything.
Mother TeresaThe poor are great! The poor are wonderful! The poor are very generous! They give us much more than what we give them.
Mother TeresaSeeking the face of God in everything, everyone, all the time, and his hand in every happening; This is what it means to be contemplative in the heart of the world. Seeing and adoring the presence of Jesus, especially in the lowly appearance of bread, and in the distressing disguise of the poor.
Mother TeresaIf sometimes our poor people have had to die of starvation, it is not that God didn't care for them, but because you and I didn't give, were not an instrument of love in the hands of God, to give them that bread, to give them that clothing; because we did not recognize him, when once more Christ came in distressing disguise, in the hungry man, in the lonely man, in the homeless child, and seeking for shelter.
