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.

More quotes by Mother Teresa

Image
He came amongst his own and his own received him not, and it hurt him then and it has kept on hurting him. The same hunger, the same loneliness, the same having no one to be accepted by and to be loved and wanted by.
Mother Teresa
Image
A joyful heart is the normal result of a heart burning with love. She gives most who gives with joy.
Mother Teresa
Image
There is more hunger for love and appreciation in this world than for bread.
Mother Teresa
Image
The family that prays together stays together, and if they stay together they will love one another as God has loved each one of them. And works of love are always works of peace.
Mother Teresa
Image
I can't help thousands, I can help only the one who stands before me.
Mother Teresa
Image
Even when the urgent is good, the good can keep you from your best, keep you from your unique contribution, if you let it.
Mother Teresa
Image
I was once asked why I don't participate in anti-war demonstrations. I said that I will never do that, but as soon as you have a pro-peace rally, I'll be there.
Mother Teresa
Image
Today it is fashionable to talk about the poor. Unfortunately, it is not fashionable to talk with them.
Mother Teresa
Image
A life not lived for others is not a life.
Mother Teresa
Image
I always say if you are afraid of them (the unborn), give them to me. Please, don't kill them.
Mother Teresa
Image
You who have received so much love, share it with others. Love others the way that God has loved you, with tenderness.
Mother Teresa
Image
You can and you must expect suffering.
Mother Teresa

Recovering in a Calcutta, India hospital. I think I'm more difficult than critical.
Mother Teresa

…Spread your love everywhere you go.
Mother Teresa
Image
Let us not love by words alone, but let us love until it hurts.
Mother Teresa
Image
Let us not use bombs and guns to overcome the world. Let us use love and compassion. Peace begins with a smile-smile five times a day at someone you don't really want to smile at at all-do it for peace. So let us radiate peace...and extinguish in the world and in the hearts of all men all hatred and love for power.

I am but a small pencil in the hand of a writing God
Mother Teresa
Image
I pray that you will understand the words of Jesus, “Love one another as I have loved you.” Ask yourself “How has he loved me? Do I really love others in the same way?” Unless this love is among us, we can kill ourselves with work and it will only be work, not love. Work without love is slavery.
Mother Teresa
Image
Nobody can change your religion unless you want to and God gives you the grace. It's between you and God alone. Nobody can force you.
Mother Teresa

How can there be too many children? That is like saying there are too many flowers.
Mother Teresa
