The joy of Jesus will be my strength - it will be in my heart. Every person I meet will see it in my work my walk, my prayer - in everything.
Mother Teresa

If we really want to love, if we really want to live, we must love until it hurts . . . No Rotarian whose motto is Service Above Self, I think, should call himself a Rotarian if he does not make time to serve . . . If we love, we begin to serve

I am not sure exactly what heaven will be like, but I know that when we die and it comes time for God to judge us, he will not ask, 'How many good things have you done in your life?' rather he will ask, 'How much love did you put into what you did?'
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
Where there is love, there is joy.
Mother Teresa
Image
I prefer to make a mistake because I am too kind than to perform miracles without any kindness.
Mother Teresa

Every day I see Jesus Christ in all his distressing disguises.
Mother Teresa

Real prayer is union with God, a union as vital as that of the vine to the branch.
Mother Teresa
Image
We have very little, so we have nothing to be preoccupied with. The more you have, the more you are occupied, the less you give. But the less you have, the more free you are.
Mother Teresa

In loving and serving, we prove that we have been created in the likeness of God, for God is Love and when we love we are like God.
