Prayer makes your heart bigger, until it is capable of containing the gift of God himself. Prayer begets faith, faith begets love, and love begets service on behalf of the poor (Mother Teresa Quotes)
As for me, the silence and the emptiness is so great, that I look and do not see, - Listen and do not hear - the tongue moves but does not speak … I want you to pray for me - that I let Him have free hand (Mother Teresa Quotes)
I feel the greatest destroyer of peace today is 'Abortion', because it is a war against the child... A direct killing of the innocent child, 'Murder' by the mother herself... And if we can accept that a mother can kill even her own child, how can we tell other people not to kill one another? How do we persuade a woman not to have an abortion? As always, we must persuade her with love... And we remind ourselves that love means to be willing to give until it hurts (Mother Teresa Quotes)
There are many people who can do big things, but there are very few people who will do the small things (Mother Teresa Quotes)
Pain and suffering have come into your life, but remember pain, sorrow, suffering are but the kiss of Jesus - a sign that you have come so close to Him that He can kiss you (Mother Teresa Quotes)
The success of love is in the loving - it is not in the result of loving. Of course it is natural in love to want the best for the other person, but whether it turns out that way or not does not determine the value of what we have done (Mother Teresa Quotes)
In loving one another through our works we bring an increase of grace and a growth in divine love (Mother Teresa Quotes)
Each of us is merely a small instrument; all of us, after accomplishing our mission, will disappear (Mother Teresa Quotes)
Christ came to be Father's compassion to the world. Be kind in your actions. Do not think that you are the only one who can do efficient work, work worth showing. This makes you harsh in your judgment of others who may not have the same talents. Do your best and trust that others do their best. And be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies (Mother Teresa Quotes)
In the silence of the heart God speaks. If you face God in prayer and silence, God will speak to you. Then you will know that you are nothing. It is only when you realize your nothingness, your emptiness, that God can fill you with Himself. Souls of prayer are souls of great silence (Mother Teresa Quotes)
We too are called to withdraw at certain intervals into deeper silence and aloneness with God, together as a community as well as personally; to be alone with Him - not with our books, thoughts, and memories but completely stripped of everything - to dwell lovingly in His presence, silent, empty, expectant, and motionless. We cannot find God in noise or agitation (Mother Teresa Quotes)
A joyful heart is the normal result of a heart burning with love. She gives most who gives with joy (Mother Teresa Quotes)
Joy must be one of the pivots of our life. It is the token of a generous personality. Sometimes it is also a mantle that clothes a life of sacrifice and self-giving. A person who has this gift often reaches high summits. He or she is like sun in a community (Mother Teresa Quotes)
Seeking the face of God in everything, everyone, all the time, and his hand in every happening; This is what it means to be contemplative in the heart of the world. Seeing and adoring the presence of Jesus, especially in the lowly appearance of bread, and in the distressing disguise of the poor (Mother Teresa Quotes)
Suffering is nothing by itself. But suffering shared with the passion of Christ is a wonderful gift, the most beautiful gift, a token of love (Mother Teresa Quotes)
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 Quotes)
Hungry for love, He looks at you. Thirsty for kindness, He begs of you. Naked for loyalty, He hopes in you. Homeless for shelter in your heart, He asks of you. Will you be that one to Him? (Mother Teresa Quotes)
A sacrifice to be real must cost, must hurt, and must empty ourselves. 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 weakness (Mother Teresa Quotes)
We must know that we have been created for greater things, not just to be a number in the world, not just to go for diplomas and degrees, this work and that work. We have been created in order to love and to be loved (Mother Teresa Quotes)
Keep the corners of your mouth turned up. Speak in a low, persuasive tone. Listen; be teachable. Laugh at good stories and learn to tell them...For as long as you are green, you can grow (Mother Teresa Quotes)
At the hour of death when we come face-to-face with God, we are going to be judged on love; not how much we have done, but how much love we put into the doing (Mother Teresa Quotes)
The trees, the flowers, the plants grow in silence. The stars, the sun, the moon move in silence. Silence gives us a new perspective (Mother Teresa Quotes)
How can there be too many children? That is like saying there are too many flowers (Mother Teresa Quotes)
We must become holy not because we want to feel holy, but because Christ must be able to live His life fully in us (Mother Teresa Quotes)
It is only when you realize your nothingness, your emptiness, that God can fill you with Himself (Mother Teresa Quotes)
If you are discouraged, it is a sign of pride because it shows you trust in your own powers (Mother Teresa Quotes)
I know I am touching the living body of Christ in the broken bodies of the hungry and the suffering (Mother Teresa Quotes)
See how nature - trees, flowers, grass - grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence...we need silence to be able to touch souls (Mother Teresa Quotes)
The more you have, the more you are occupied, the less you give. But the less you have the more free you are. Poverty for us is a freedom. It is not mortification, a penance. It is joyful freedom. There is no television here, no this, no that. But we are perfectly happy (Mother Teresa Quotes)
A clean heart is a free heart. A free heart can love Christ with an undivided love in chastity, convinced that nothing and nobody will separate it from his love. Purity, chastity, and virginity created a special beauty in Mary that attracted God's attention (Mother Teresa Quotes)
