I know i am touching the living body of Christ in the broken bodies of the hungry and the suffering.
Mother TeresaIf you have not the experience, ask. There is no shame in asking, but do not pretend you know when you don't.
Mother TeresaStay very close to Our Lady. If you do this, you can do great things for God and the good of people.
Mother TeresaLove has no meaning if it isn't shared. We have been created for greater things - to love and to be loved... To love a person without any conditions, without any expectations. Small things, done in great love, bring joy and peace. To love, it is necessary to give. To give, it is necessary to be free from selfishness.
Mother TeresaWe cannot condemn or judge or pass words that will hurt people. We don't know in what way God is appearing to that soul and what God is drawing that soul to; therefore, who are we to condemn anybody?
Mother TeresaPeople are unreasonable, illogical and self-centered. Love them anyway.... Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable. Be honest and frank anyway.... What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight. Build anyway. .. Give the world the best you have and you'll get kicked in the teeth. Give the world the best you've got anyway.
