Mother Teresa founded the Missionaries of Charity in India. She is most known for her work among the poverty-stricken of Kolkata (Calcutta) and is referred to as the Angel of Mercy. Her work has changed the life of millions and the way she lived continues to be a source of inspiration for even more around the world. She is remembered and she is loved, because she gave love.
Few of us can do great things, but all of us can do small things with great love.
It truly is amazing what a person can do when they allow love and gratefulness to fill their heart. Let us be reminded of that this day.

The more time I spend reading about Mother Theresa and her life the more I am inclined to accept her view of life as the only view worth having. What matters in life is service, and not just for the sake of serving, but so that we reflect back a heart of gratitude to God who is constantly serving our needs. I pull away from this view over and over, but each time I grasp it again it is with stronger conviction that this is the right way to live life.
