We need silence to be able to touch souls.
Mother Teresa
Image
God has created us to love and to be loved, and this is the beginning of prayer-to know that He loves me, that I have been created for greater things.
Mother Teresa
Image
Brothers, Fathers and Sisters - all of us in the Missionaries of Charity are doing the same. All of us have been created by God to love and to be loved. We are involved in this work. When you do that, there is joy, unity and love.
Mother Teresa
Image
I am busy with my work. My path is clear. I see somebody dying, I pick him up. I find somebody hungry, I give him food. He can love and be loved. I don't look at his color, I don't look at his religion.
Mother Teresa
Image
The fruit of faith is love.
Mother Teresa
Image
Joy is very infectious therefore, be always full of joy!
Mother Teresa

You weren't created just to consume resources, you were put on this Earth to make a contribution.
Mother Teresa

Holy Angels, our advocates, our brothers, our counselors, our defenders, our enlighteners, our friends, our guides, our helpers, our intercessors - Pray for us.
Mother Teresa

Whatever religion we are, we must pray together.
Mother Teresa

In the silence of our hearts, God speaks of His love with our silence, we allow Jesus to love us.
Mother Teresa
Image
I don't think there is anyone who needs God's help as much as I do. Sometimes I feel so helpless and weak. I think that is why God uses me. Because I cannot depend on my own strength, I rely on Him twenty-four hours a day.
Mother Teresa
Image
Look at the cross and you will know what one soul means to Jesus.
Mother Teresa
Image
If people spent one hour per week in Eucharistic Adoration, abortion would be ended
Mother Teresa

Silence gives us a new way of looking at something.
Mother Teresa
Image
At this Christmas when Christ comes, will He find a warm heart? Mark the season of Advent by loving and serving the others with God's own love and concern.
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.
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
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
Spread the love of God through your life but only use words when necessary.
Mother Teresa
Image
I can't help thousands, I can help only the one who stands before me.
Mother Teresa
