:: My favourite quotes by mother theresa ::
1. It is poverty to decide that a child must die so that you may live as you wish.
2. Love is a fruit in season at all times, and within reach of every hand.
3. Love, to be real, must cost, it must hurt, it must empty us of self.
4. Somebody loves us, too -- God Himself. We have been created to love and to be loved.
5. We are all pencils in the hand of God.
6. The child is God's gift to the family. Each child is created in the special image and likeness of God for greater things; to love and to be loved.
7. 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.
8. There is a tremendous strength that is growing in the world through sharing together, praying together, suffering together, and working together.
9. I never will understand all the good that a simple smile can accomplish.
10. To show great love for God and our neighbor we need not do great things. It is how much love we put in the doing that makes our offering something beautiful for God.
11. We, the unwilling, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have done so much, for so long, with so little, we are now qualified to do anything with nothing.
12. If you judge people, you have no time to love them.
13. 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. We must find each other.
1 John 3:18 "My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth."
1 John 4:7-12 "Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another. No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us."
I believe if most people really put these quotes into practice, the world would become a better place. To my fellow brothers and sisters in Christ, just as how God saved us with His love, we too, need His love to save others.
