More quotes by Mother Teresa
There are so many religions and each one has its different ways of following God. I follow Christ: Jesus is my God, Jesus is my Spouse, Jesus is my Life, Jesus is my only Love, Jesus is my All in All Jesus is my Everything.
Mother Teresa
Everything starts from prayer. Without asking God for love, we cannot possess love and still less are we able to give it to others. Just as people today are speaking so much about the poor but they do not know or talk to the poor, we too cannot talk so much about prayer and yet not know how to pray.
Mother Teresa
It is a poverty to decide that a child must die so that you may live as you wish.
Mother Teresa
People are hungry for God. What [a] terrible meeting [it] would be with our neighbour if we give them only ourselves.
Mother Teresa
Prayer enlarges the heart until it is capable of containing God's gift of Himself. Ask and seek and you heart will grow big enough to receive Him and to keep Him as your own. Wherever God has put you, that is your vocation. It is not what we do but how much love we put into it.
Mother Teresa
I still think that the greatest suffering is being lonely, feeling unloved, just having no one... That is the worst disease that any human being can ever experience.
Mother Teresa
Faith is a gift from God and he gives it to whomever he chooses
Mother Teresa
Prayer to be fruitful must come from the heart and must be able to touch the heart of God.
Mother Teresa
Life is a challenge, we must take it.
Mother Teresa
Don't wait to be led...do it yourself, person to person.
Mother Teresa
Life's a song,sing it
Mother Teresa
We must love prayer. It widens the heart to the point of making it capable of containing the gift that God makes of himself. Ask and seek, and your heart will be widened to welcome him and to keep him within itself.
Mother Teresa
You who have received so much love, share it with others. Love others the way that God has loved you, with tenderness.
Mother Teresa
Holiness is not the luxury of a few people, but a simple duty for you and me.
Mother Teresa
Therefore, even if you write a letter for a blind man or you must go and sit and listen, or you take the mail for him, or you visit somebody or bring a flower to somebody... it is never too small, for this is our love of Christ in action
Mother Teresa
Joy is a net of love by which you can catch souls.
Mother Teresa
Do not allow yourselves to be disheartened by any failure as long as you have done your best.
Mother Teresa
I would rather make mistakes in kindness and compassion than work miracles in unkindness and hardness.
Mother Teresa
Religion has nothing to do with compassion it is our love for God that is the main thing because we have all been created for the sole purpose to love and be loved.
Mother Teresa
Follow the path of serenity. Why lose your temper if by losing it you offend God, trouble your neighbor and in the end have to set things aright anyway?
Mother Teresa
