The Blessings of Love - Tapa blanda

God created us for great things, says Mother Teresa of Calcutta. But most of us feel we cannot do the "great things" Mother Teresa has done. How can our lives have meaning?The Blessings of Love is a collection of Mother Teresa's words that serve as instructions for how to make our daily lives count. Each page has a quote which reminds us of a "great thing" we can do—look one another in the eye, smile, listen with an understanding heart, start the day with Jesus. Topics include loving God, loving your neighbor, loving at home, expressing joy, understanding those who suffer, praying, responding to social concerns, giving and more.

MOTHER TERESA is the founder of the Missionaries of Charity, whose sisters, brothers and priests serve the poorest of the poor throughout the world. Mother Teresa won many awards, including the 1979 Nobel Peace Prize. After her death in 1997, a popular movement for her canonization quickly sprung up, and she was beatified in 2007.
