Mother Teresa chose to “serve the poorest of the poor and to live among them and like them.” She saw beauty in every human being. She, along with others of the Missionaries of Charity, strove to make the lives and deaths of those around them more peaceful and full of love.
Sr Praema :
“She never did anything to lead others to herself, but only to Jesus and Mary,” She guided us in how to live in a practical way the high demands of total surrender and trust, always with a smile,”
“I believe Mother’s smile was her gift to Jesus and the world,” she said noting how in the midst of the sadness in the world today, people need joy and hope.
Mother Teresa :
The most terrible poverty is loneliness, and the feeling of being unloved.
If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.
It’s not how much we give but how much love we put into giving.
t’s not how much we give but how much love we put into giving.
Joy is a net of love in which you can catch souls.
Never travel faster than your guardian angel can fly.
Let us always meet each other with smile, for the smile is the beginning of love.
If you are humble nothing will touch you, neither praise nor disgrace, because you know what you are.
Do not wait for leaders; do it alone, person to person.
We do not need guns and bombs to bring peace, we need love and compassion.
