Behold , I have graven you upon the palm of my hand, that is what Jesus came on earth to do: to proclaim, to give us the Good News that God loves us, that we are precious to Him.

People are hungry for God. What [a] terrible meeting [it] would be with our neighbour if we give them only ourselves.
Mother Teresa
Image
It is easy to love the people far away. It is not always easy to love those close to us.
Mother Teresa
Image
[My mother tongue is] Albanian. But, I am equally fluent in Bengali (language of Calcutta) and English.
Mother Teresa
Image
It is not the magnitude of our actions, but the amount of love that is put into them that matters.
Mother Teresa
Image
Prayer to be fruitful must come from the heart and must be able to touch the heart of God.

If only one little unhappy child is made happy with the love of Jesus,...will it not be worth...giving all for that?
Mother Teresa

I must be willing to give whatever it takes to do good to others. This requires that I be willing to give until it hurts. Otherwise, there is no true love in me, and I bring injustice, not peace, to those around me.
Mother Teresa

We must never be afraid to be a sign of contradiction for the world.

People everywhere are the same they are all people to be loved. They are all hungry for love.
Mother Teresa
Image
In light of heaven, the worst suffering on earth, a life full of the most atrocious tortures on earth, will be seen to be no more serious than one night in an inconvenient hotel.
Mother Teresa
Image
Sometimes people can hunger for more than bread. It is possible that our children, our husband, our wife, do not hunger for bread, do not need clothes, do not lack a house. But are we equally sure that none of them feels alone, abandonded, neglected, needing some affection? That, too, is poverty.
Mother Teresa
Image
For me, life is the most beautiful gift of God to mankind, therefore people and nations who destroy life by abortion and euthanasia are the poorest. I do not say legal or illegal, but I think that no human hand should be raised to kill life, since life is God's life in us, even in an unborn child.
Mother Teresa
Image
What will we answer to Him about that child, that old father and mother, because they are His creation, they are children of God.
Mother Teresa
Image
I have never had clarity what I have always had is trust. So I will pray that you will trust God.
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
I always begin my prayer in silence, for it is in the silence of the heart that God speaks. God is the friend of silence-we need to listen to God because it's not what we say but what He says to us and through us that matters.

If people spent one hour per week in Eucharistic Adoration, abortion would be ended
