More quotes by Mother Teresa

Image
Keep your heart pure. A pure heart is necessary to see God in each other. If you see God in each other, there is love for each other, then there is peace.
Mother Teresa
Image
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
Image
Am I ever angry or frustrated? I only feel angry sometimes when I see waste, when things that we waste are what people need, things that would save them from dying. Frustrated? No, never.
Mother Teresa

Prayer to be fruitful must come from the heart and must be able to touch the heart of God.

Mother Teresa tells a story of walking past an open drain and catching a glimpse of something moving in it.

Let us more and more insist on raising funds of love, of kindness, of understanding, of peace. Money will come if we seek first the Kingdom of God - the rest will be given.

I can't help thousands, I can help only the one who stands before me.

Riches, both material and spiritual, can choke you if you do not use them fairly. For not even God can put anything in a heart that is already full.
