The Face of Love

Mother Teresa of Calcutta

"Yesterday is gone.  Tomorrow has not yet come.

We have only today.  Let us begin."

"At the end of our lives, we will not be judged by how

many diplomas we have received, how much money we

have made or how many great things we have done.

We will be judged by

'I was hungry and you gave me to eat.

I was naked and you clothed me.

I was homeless and you took me in.'

Hungry not only for bread-but hungry for love.

Naked not only for clothing-

but naked of human dignity and respect.

Homeless not only for want of a room of bricks-

but homeless because of rejection.

This is Christ in distressing disguise."

Mother Teresa

"Keep close to Jesus,

He loves you

Let us pray

God bless you."

I beg you through the mercy of God to

offer your bodies as a living sacrifice holy

and acceptable to God, your spiritual worship.

Do not conform yourselves to this age

but be transformed by the renewal of your

mind, so that you may judge what is

God's will, what is good, pleasing and perfect. (Romans 12:1-2)

The above scripture passage filled my heart with thoughts of Mother,

she truly lived the Gospel of Jesus Christ,

doing what was good, pleasing and perfect in God's eyes.

She was fearless in her pursuit of truth and justice.

A Prayer

Mother, you followed the Will of  God in your life,

you lived in the world but were not of the world,

You did not conform to the worlds standards, you chose

the better way, living the Gospel of Our Lord Jesus Christ!

Pray for us Mother, that we too may always do the

will of God in our lives, never being ashamed that we

have chosen the better way.

Amen.
