Blog Post 9/05/2023 - Memorial of St. Teresa of Calcutta

St. Teresa of Calcutta, a.k.a. Mother Teresa

A tiny woman, she began with the most meager of resources.  Mother Teresa of Calcutta, India died as a world-known figure.  Who would have ever thought she would have attained such influence when she first began?  What did she have to recommend her?

Mother Teresa told her superiors, “I have three pennies and a dream from God to build an orphanage.   Mother’s superiors said, “you can’t build an orphanage with three pennies ... with three pennies you can’t do anything.”

“I know,” she said, smiling, “but with God & three pennies I can do anything.” [Sermons.com, God and Three Pennies]

Mother Teresa understood Jesus’ parable of the seed.  When God blesses, miracles occur. Today Thank God for the miracles He has given you.

 

May God Be Praised.
