There is but one love of Jesus, as there is but one person in the poor - Jesus. We take vows of chastity to love Christ with undivided love; to be able to love him with undivided love we take a vow of poverty which frees us from all material possessions, and with that freedom we can love him with undivided love, and from this vow of undivided love we surrender ourselves totally to him in the person who takes his place.
Mother TeresaWe do not strive for spectacular actions. What counts is the gift of yourself, the degree of love you put into each of your deeds.
Mother TeresaO God, how easily I make them happy! Give me strength to be always the light of their lives and so lead them to You!
Mother TeresaEverything starts with prayer. Love to pray-feel the need to pray often during the day and take the trouble to pray. If you want to pray better, you must pray more. The more you pray, the easier it becomes. Perfect prayer does not consist of many words but in the fervor of the desire which raises the heart to Jesus.
