Mother Teresa of Calcutta was a wise, holy, & loving person. She had her own doubts & weaknesses that she struggled with - she was human for sure. She said, "A sacrifice to be real must cost, must hurt, must empty ourselves. The fruit of silence is prayer, the fruit of prayer is faith, the fruit of faith is love, the fruit of love is service, the fruit of service is peace."
Wouldn't it be grand if every human being took this approach to life. What a beautiful world we could have. She also said, "Give yourself fully to God. He will use you to accomplish great things on the condition that you believe much more in His love than in your own weakness." If we all believed in His love, what great things He might accomplish!
I hope that I can learn to love, forgive, give, pray, and listen to God as she did in her life. I can try to imitate Mother Teresa as a modern-day example of how I should treat others - everyone! I hope that when I die I can be one-one hundredth (1/100) as kind, giving, and full of grace as she was. Mother Teresa pray for us!
