During his Sermon on the Mount, Jesus implored his disciples to glorify God by their good deeds. Throughout history many disciples of Jesus have done just that. One such disciple was Mother Teressa of Calcutta. By her simple devotion to Jesus and in helping the poorest of the poor, Mother Teressa impacted the entire world.
Today the Missionaries of Charity, founded by Mother Teresa, have over 750 houses serving the poor in over 120 countries. In addition, Mother Teressa’s spiritual devotion to prayer and of seeing Jesus in everyone she met, particularly the poor, continues to impact countless lives throughout the world.
“We will be the happiest people in the world if we belong to God, if we place ourselves at His disposal, if we let Him use us as He pleases.” ~ Mother Teresa
“Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love.” ~ Mother Teresa
