A sacrifice to be real must cost, must hurt, and must empty ourselves. Give yourself fully to God. He will use you to accomplish great things on the condition that you believe much more in his love than in your weakness.

More quotes by Mother Teresa
If you are hungry to hear the voice of God, you will hear. To hear, you have to cut out all other things.
Mother Teresa
Yesterday is gone. Tomorrow has not yet come. We have only today. Let us begin.
Mother Teresa
Holiness consists of doing the will of God with a smile.
Mother Teresa
Love cannot remain by itself - it has no meaning. Love has to be put into action and that action is service.
Mother Teresa
Anybody who helps the poor is delighted. So naturally, they (critics) are not very happy with us.
Mother Teresa
Jesus has very clearly said in the gospel. Whatever you do, do to the least of my brethren. Clear? That was the work of Jesus.
Mother Teresa
If I'd never have picked up the first person, I'd never have picked up the 42,000 in Calcutta.
Mother Teresa
It is not possible to engage in the direct apostolate without being a soul of prayer. We must be aware of oneness with Christ, as he was aware of oneness with his Father. Our activity is truly apostolic only insofar as we permit him to work in us and through us with his power, with his desire, with his love.
Mother Teresa
Life is a song, sing it. Life is a struggle, accept it.
Mother Teresa
The highest form of worship is to find the least among you and treat them like Jesus.
Mother Teresa
Spread love whenever you go.
Mother Teresa
Life is a game, play it... Life is too precious, do not destroy it.
Mother Teresa
I try to give to the poor people for love what the rich could get for money. No, I wouldn't touch a leper for a thousand pounds yet I willingly cure him for the love of God.
Mother Teresa
Don't expect your friend to be a perfect person. Help your friend to become a perfect person. That is true friendship
Mother Teresa
Love has a hem to her garment that reaches to the very dust. It sweeps the stains from the streets and lanes, and because it can, it must.
Mother Teresa
It is a poverty to decide that a child must die so that you may live as you wish.
Mother Teresa
My prayer for you is that you come to understand and have the courage to answer Jesus' call to you with the simple word 'yes'.
Mother Teresa
I don't do great things. I do small things with great love.
Mother Teresa
Give a glass of water, you give it to me. Receive a little child, you receive me.
Mother Teresa
As for me, the silence and the emptiness is so great, that I look and do not see, — Listen and do not hear — the tongue moves but does not speak … I want you to pray for me — that I let Him have free hand.
Mother Teresa
