Mother Teresa returns to us and she lives in the words she wrote...but even more in the Words she lived....that is what this book is all about and what her life was all about... You do not just speak of God's love in Jesus, about loving the neighbor, you live it with a fullness of life that brings deep and abiding satisfaction. A kind of satisfaction that cannot be bought...but in this book this can be found. Here is where the heart is found... in giving it away. Thanks again to Mother Teresa for continuing to remind us of what brings the Greatest Joy of Heart or life.

This short 149-page book excels at capturing the thoughts of this living saint on such themes as generosity, the love of God, care for others, hunger for God and the privilege of living for Christ.

Captured from her teachings and lecturers to her workers and followers, this wonder gem of a book will put you at Mother's feet.

Used as a devotional it will only incites you to the service of others and deepen your worship of God. For in her own words "Faith is love in action".

This book has been one of my daily prayer books for close to ten years. The quotes are beautiful, powerful and short -- just right for the purpose of meditating on one per day.

However, the thoughts are not in logical sequence. For example, quotes on humility and confession are spread over a few chapters and the rationale/need for humility is not put upfront first, followed by the attributes of humility and how one can practice it.

This is an excellent product. I still haven't received one of the ones that I ordered. It was due on June 1.

You don't need to be a Catholic to gain daily inspiration from this desk-flip calendar, the messages are simple and sublime! A friend of mine asked me if I would like to have her old desk calendar, it was water-warped, but still pretty. I set it on my bedside, the more I read, the more time I spent soaking in Mother Theresa's words. I jumped on-line and found it for a fraction of the cost of a new one, and sent it to my sister for her birthday. She loves the colors, the roses, and says she will treasure it for years. That's just it - the date on each page does not have the year...this gem can be used year after year...
