Joy must be one of the pivots of our life. It is the token of a generous personality. Sometimes it is also a mantle that clothes a life of sacrifice and self-giving. A person who has this gift often reaches high summits. He or she is like sun in a community.

The joy of the presence of Jesus, you must be able to give wherever you go. But you cannot give what you don't have. That's why you need a pure heart, a pure heart that you will receive as a fruit of your prayer, as a fruit of your oneness with Christ.

Do you want to do something beautiful for God? There is a person who needs you. This is your chance.

We have a vow to give wholeheartedly everything to the poor.

I have a diplomatic passport for India, diplomatic passport for Albania. I have Vatican passport and to America, I can go any time.
