Let us touch the dying, the poor, the lonely and the unwanted
according to the graces we have received and let us not be ashamed or
slow to do the humble work.

PostHeaderIcon Beautiful quotes from Mother Teresa

4:06 PM | Posted by Missy | Edit Post
Being unwanted, unloved, uncared for, forgotten by everybody, I think
that is a much greater hunger, a much greater poverty than the person
who has nothing to eat.
Mother Teresa

Each one of them is Jesus in disguise.
Mother Teresa

Even the rich are hungry for love, for being cared for, for being
wanted, for having someone to call their own.
Mother Teresa

I do not pray for success, I ask for faithfulness.
Mother Teresa

I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can
be no more hurt, only more love.
Mother Teresa

I know God will not give me anything I can't handle. I just wish that
He didn't trust me so much.
Mother Teresa

If you can't feed a hundred people, then feed just one.
Mother Teresa

In this life we cannot do great things. We can only do small things
with great love.
Mother Teresa

Intense love does not measure, it just gives.
Mother Teresa

It is a poverty to decide that a child must die so that you may live
as you wish.
Mother Teresa

It is not the magnitude of our actions but the amount of love that is
put into them that matters.
Mother Teresa

Let us touch the dying, the poor, the lonely and the unwanted
according to the graces we have received and let us not be ashamed or
slow to do the humble work.
Mother Teresa

Loneliness and the feeling of being unwanted is the most terrible
poverty.
Mother Teresa

One of the greatest diseases is to be nobody to anybody.
Mother Teresa

Our life of poverty is as necessary as the work itself. Only in
heaven will we see how much we owe to the poor for helping us to love
God better because of them.
Mother Teresa

The biggest disease today is not leprosy or tuberculosis, but rather
the feeling of being unwanted.
Mother Teresa

The hunger for love is much more difficult to remove than the hunger
for bread.
Mother Teresa

If you want happiness for an hour, take a nap.
If you want happiness for a day, go fishing.
If you want happiness for a year, inherit a fortune.
If you want happiness for a lifetime, help somebody.
- Chinese proverb
It is not the will of your Father that any one of these little ones should perish. Matt. 18:14

Whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name welcomes me. Matt. 18:5

Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

-Ralph Waldo Emerson
