Where does love begin? In our own homes. When does it begin? When we pray together. The family that prays together stays together.
Mother TeresaWe all long for heaven where God is, but we have it in our power to be in heaven with him right now-to be happy with him at this very moment. But being happy with him now means.
Mother TeresaIn vocal prayer we speak to God; in mental prayer he speaks to us. It is then that God pours Himself into us.
Mother Teresa[My mother tongue is] Albanian. But, I am equally fluent in Bengali (language of Calcutta) and English.
Mother TeresaGod made the world for the delight of human beings-- if we could see His goodness everywhere, His concern for us, His awareness of our needs: the phone call we've waited for, the ride we are offered, the letter in the mail, just the little things He does for us throughout the day. As we remember and notice His love for us, we just begin to fall in love with Him because He is so busy with us -- you just can't resist Him. I believe there's no such thing as luck in life, it's God's love, it's His.
