We never try to convert those who receive (aid) to Christianity but in our work we bear witness to the love of God's presence and if Catholics, Protestants, Buddhists, or agnostics become for this better men - simply better - we will be satisfied. It matters to the individual what church he belongs to. If that individual thinks and believes that this is the only way to God for her or him, this is the way God comes into their life - his life. If he does not know any other way and if he has no doubt so that he does not need to search then this is his way to salvation.

In Calcutta alone, we have given more than 1,000 children in adoption. I cannot calculate how many babies we get a year. But we never refuse anybody. Everybody is most welcome.

Mother Teresa 926 quotes

It is not possible to engage ...

It is not possible to engage in the direct apostolate without being a soul of prayer. We must be aware of oneness with Christ, as he was aware of oneness with his Father. Our activity is truly apostolic only insofar as we permit him to work in us and through us with his power, with his desire, with his love.

Mother Teresa 926 quotes

We do not strive for spectacular actions. What counts is the gift of yourself, the degree of love you put into each of your deeds.

Mother Teresa 926 quotes

Thou shall love the Lord with...

Thou shall love the Lord with thy whole heart, soul, and mind. This is the commandment of the Great God, and he cannot command the impossible. Love is a fruit in season at all times and within reach of every hand. Anyone may gather it and no limit is set. Everyone can reach this love through meditation, spirit of prayer, and sacrifice by an intense inner life. There is no limit because God is love, love is God, God's love is infinite. But part is to love and to give until it hurts. That's why it is not how much you do, but how much love you put into the action.

Mother Teresa 926 quotes

There should be less talk. . . . What do you do then? Take a broom and clean someone's house. That says enough.

Mother Teresa 926 quotes

We should not serve the poor ...

We should not serve the poor like they were Jesus. We should serve the poor because they are Jesus.

Mother Teresa 926 quotes

We all long for heaven where God is, but we have it in our power to be in heaven with him right now-to be happy with him at this very moment. But being happy with him now means.

Mother Teresa 926 quotes

Lord, help us to see in your ...

Lord, help us to see in your crucifixion and resurrection an example of how to endure and seemingly to die in the agony and conflict of daily life, so that we may live more fully and creatively. You accepted patiently and humbly the rebuffs of human life, as well as the torture of the cross. Help us to accept the pains and conflicts that come to us each day as opportunity to grow as people and become more like you-make us realize that it is only by frequent deaths of ourselves, and our self-centered desires that we can come to live more fully, only by dying with you that we can rise with you.

Mother Teresa 926 quotes

Jesus taught us how to forgiv...

Jesus taught us how to forgive out of love, how to forget out of humility. So let us examine our hearts and see if there is any unforgiven hurt -- any unforgotten bitterness! It is easy to love those who are far away. It isn't always easy to love those who are right next to us. It is easier to offer food to the hungry than to answer the lonely suffering of someone who lacks love right in one

Duty is a very personal thing. It is what comes from knowing the need to take action and not just a need to urge others to do something.

Faith keeps the person who keeps the faith.

Mother Teresa 926 quotes

Faith is more important to me...

Faith is more important to me than life itself because without it there would be no fullness of life.

In ... silence we find a new energy and a real unity. God's energy becomes our, allowing us to perform things well.

The joy of the presence of Jesus, you must be able to give wherever you go. But you cannot give what you don't have. That's why you need a pure heart, a pure heart that you will receive as a fruit of your prayer, as a fruit of your oneness with Christ.

Mother Teresa 926 quotes

In loving and serving, we prove that we have been created in the likeness of God, for God is Love and when we love we are like God.

Mother Teresa 926 quotes

Joy is the characteristic by ...

Joy is the characteristic by which God uses us to re-make the distressing into the desired, the discarded into the creative. Joy is prayer-Joy is strength-Joy is love-Joy is a net of love by which you can catch souls.

God demands not that I be successful, but that I be faithful.

By praying ... If you want to pray better, you must pray more.

Put yourself completely under the influence of Jesus, so that he may think his thoughts in your mind, do his work through your hands, for you will be all-powerful with him to strengthen you.
