“I
have found the paradox that if you love until it hurts, there will be no more
hurt; only more love.” - Mother Teresa
Looking
more closely into the life of an extraordinary person who believed she did only
ordinary things, Mother Teresa exemplified all that is right with Christian
doctrine and practice even within what she believed were her
imperfections! She obeyed the command of our Lord among predominantly
Hindus and did not worry about whether they converted and did not ask their
religion. In the end I think it can be said that she saved many souls
because of the true Gospel her charges witnessed at work in their lives amidst
their suffering. To give until it hurts and then give even more can be
attributed to our Lord’s promise that the more we give, the more we will
receive because it is in giving so freely by which we prove to our Lord we can
be trusted with His most precious gifts.
May
we all be so divinely trusted!
Blessings,
Michael
