Inspired by Mother Teresa's life, let us give till it hurts. Though it may demand material sacrifice, may we proclaim the love of Christ.
“And we read that in the Gospel very clearly—love as I have loved you—as I love you—as the Father has loved me, I love you—and the harder the Father loved him, he gave him to us, and how much we love one another, we, too, must give to each other until it hurts. That we may remain faithful to the gift of God, to love him and serve him in the poor together with you.” “And so let us always meet each other with a smile, for the smile is the beginning of love, and once we begin to love each other naturally, we want to do something. It is striking how little Mother Teresa’s language changes, even for a Nobel Lecture, before a body of the world’s sophisticated (and secular). Aided by the inspiration of Mother Teresa’s life (and by her intercession), let us give till it hurts. It is not enough for us to say: I love God, but I do not love my neighbour. How can you love God whom you do not see, if you do not love your neighbour whom you see, whom you touch, with whom you live. And [the mother] took the rice, she divided the rice, and she went out. A little boy of four years old, Hindu boy, went home and told his parents: I will not eat sugar for three days, I will give my sugar to Mother Teresa for her children. “The other day I received $15 from a man who has been on his back for twenty years, and the only part that he can move is his right hand. A gentleman came to our house and said: Mother Teresa, there is a family with eight children. And he said to me: I do not smoke for one week, and I send you this money.

Mother Teresa expected to give joyful saints to the Mother Church, as for her a Missionary of Charity must be a Missionary of Joy.
Mother Teresa expected to give joyful saints to the Mother Church, as for her a Missionary of Charity must be a Missionary of Joy. A joyful sister is like the sunshine of God’s love, the hope of eternal happiness (Constitutions of Missionaries of Charity, Part 3, Chapter 4). In the spirit of the Missionaries of Charity, the influence of St. The last paragraph of Mother’s Spiritual Testament focuses on what she refers to as the “gift” she is celebrating – St. The last general letter of Mother Teresa to the Missionaries of Charity was written 25 years ago, on September 5, 1997, exactly on the day of her death, from the Missionaries of Charity Mother House in Kolkata. Mother Teresa reflects on the upcoming September 10, 1997, the 51st anniversary of the foundation of the Missionaries of Charity (September 10, 1946), when Mother Teresa, on the train ride from Kolkata to Darjeeling to attend her yearly spiritual retreat, listened to The Voice and experienced her extraordinary mystical encounter with Christ, which changed her life forever.

Today the world commemorates the 25th death anniversary of Mother Teresa. Whatever her gross flaws, she rendered service to humanity in regions almost.
Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, and the soul of soulless conditions. In his speech at the Nobel prize ceremony in Oslo in 1979, he said: “The hallmark of her work has been respect for the individual and the individual’s worth and dignity. “What would happen to these people if it weren’t for the Teresas of this world reaching out to them in ways very few could. “What would happen to these people if it weren’t for the Teresas of this world reaching out to them in ways very few could . That is an achievement comparable to Alexander’s conquest of the known world, in scale, or to the Taj Mahal, in beauty. Mother Tesera ressurected the spirit of a Tolstoy or Gandhi and her work was manifestation of the teachings of Christ. Mother Teresa wiped away tears of misery and brought tears to eyes that hopelessness had drained dry because she believed that was the right thing to do. Not with the predatory delight of the media that swoops down on lurid depictions that seek to shock and provoke, not with the voyeurism of elite determination to empathise, not with the quiet satisfaction of donor agencies spotting an opportunity to deploy. It could be interpreted that Mother Teresa’s philosophy, which asked the poor to passively accept their fate, paved the way for the rich and the powerful to enslave the oppressed. True that Mother Teresa befriended some of the world’s most savage dictators and received lavish donations from all sorts of gangsters and oligarchs. “I think”, she said, “it is very beautiful for the poor to accept their lot, to share it with the passion of Christ. I think the world is being much helped by the suffering of the poor people”.
