If our poor die of hunger, it is not because God does not care for them. Rather, it is because neither you nor I are generous enough. It is because we are not instruments of love in the hands of God. We do not recognize Christ when once again He appears to us in the hungry man, in the lonely woman, in the child who is looking for a place to get warm.
Mother TeresaMary, my dearest Mother, give me your heart so beautiful, so pure, so immaculate, your heart so full of love and humility, that I may be able to receive Jesus in the Bread of Life, love Him as you loved Hitn and serve Him in the distressing disguise of the poorest of the poor.
Mother TeresaYou who have received so much love, show your love by protecting the sacredness of life. The sacredness of life is the greatest gifts that God has given us.
Mother TeresaIf you are discouraged it is a sign of pride, because it shows you trust in your own powers.
Mother Teresa
