We do our work for Jesus and with Jesus. It's not a matter of praying some times and working others. We pray the work.

More quotes by Mother Teresa

Image
Suffering, if it is accepted together, borne together, is joy.
Mother Teresa
Image
There is a light in this world, a healing spirit more powerful than any darkness we may encounter.
Mother Teresa
Image
Prayer is the mortar that holds our house together.
Mother Teresa
Image
A sacrifice to be real must cost, must hurt, must empty ourselves.
Mother Teresa
Image
If we can not love the person whom we see, how can we love God whom we can not see?
Mother Teresa
Image
The biggest disease today is not leprosy or tuberculosis, but rather the feeling of being unwanted.
Mother Teresa
Image
Jesus has said Come, blessed of my Father, take the seat in the kingdom prepared for you, because I was hungry you gave me food, I was thirsty you have me drink, I was naked you clothed me, I was homeless you took me home and I was sick you visited me. And we are just doing that.
Mother Teresa
Image
My prayer for you is that you may grow in the likeness of Christ, being real carriers of God's love and that you really bring his presence, first, into your own family, then, to the next door neighbor, the street you we live in, the town we live in, the country we live, then only, in the whole world, that living example of God's presence.
Mother Teresa
Image
You and I, we are the Church, no? We have to share with our people. Suffering today is because people are hoarding, not giving, not sharing. Jesus made it very clear. Whatever you do to the least of my brethren, you do it to me. Give a glass of water, you give it to me. Receive a little child, you receive me. Clear.
Mother Teresa
Image
We must pray to Jesus to give us that tenderness of the Eucharist.
Mother Teresa
Image
I feel called to help individuals, to love each human being. I never think in terms of crowds in general but in terms of persons. Were I to think about crowds, I would never begin anything.
Mother Teresa
Image
Hungry not only for bread - but hungry for love. Naked not only for clothing - but naked of human dignity and respect. Homeless not only for want of a home of bricks - but homeless because of rejection.
Mother Teresa
Image
Some people come in our life as blessings. Some come in your life as lessons.
Mother Teresa
Image
I trust that God wouldn't give me more than I can handle. I just wish he didn't have such faith in me.
Mother Teresa
Image
Joy is prayer joy is strength, joy is love. God loves a cheerful giver. The best way we can show our gratitude to God and the people is to accept everything with joy.
Mother Teresa
Image
Be the living expression of God's kindness: kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile, kindness in your warm greeting.
Mother Teresa
Image
O God, how easily I make them happy! Give me strength to be always the light of their lives and so lead them to You!
Mother Teresa

If you are successful, you will win some false friends & some true enemies: Succeed anyway
Mother Teresa
Image
The greatest destroyer of love and peace is abortion, which is war against the child. The mother doesn't learn to love, but kills to solve her own problems. Any country that accepts abortion is not teaching its people to love, but to use any violence to get what they want.

Do you want to be great? Pick up a broom and sweep the floor.
