Quote

To be pure, to remain pure, can only come at a price, the price of knowing God and loving him enough to do his will. He will always give us the strength we need to keep purity as something as beautiful for him.

More quotes by Mother Teresa

Image
I begin each day with holy Mass, receiving Jesus hidden under the appearance of a simple piece of bread. Then I go out into the streets and I find the same Jesus hidden in the dying destitute, the AIDS patients, the lepers, the abandoned children, the hungry, and the homeless. It's the same Jesus.

If you want to have world peace, go to your house and love your family.
Mother Teresa
Image
Have a great compassion for people. To be able to have a heart full of compassion, we need to pray. Especially be kind, be loving to the poor. We think we do so much for the poor, but it is they who make us rich. We are in debt to them. Do you want to do something beautiful for God? There is a person who needs you. This is your chance.
Mother Teresa
Image
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.

There are others who take up that (liberating) role. I have no time to spend for that.
Mother Teresa

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.
Mother Teresa

A life not lived for others is not a life.
Mother Teresa
Image
Whatever we get from the government or other people - even one rupee we get, we give it to the poor. Completely free service.
Mother Teresa

Suffering, if it is accepted together, borne together, is joy.
Mother Teresa

…Spread your love everywhere you go.

If there are poor on the moon, we will go there too.

A day lived without doing something good for others is a day not worth living.
Mother Teresa
Image
I have come to realize more and more that the greatest disease and the greatest suffering is to be unwanted, unloved, uncared for, to be shunned by everybody, to be just nobody.
Mother Teresa
Image
But I feel that the greatest destroyer of peace today is abortion, because it is a war against the child, a direct killing of the innocent child, murder by the mother herself.
