If you want to bring happiness

Posted on by

February 8
“If you want to bring happiness to the whole world, go home and love your family.”
 -St. Teresa of Calcutta
Today’s Reflection:
How often we forget how important it is to love those closest to us; the ones that can frequently be the hardest to love. Ask the Lord today to shine light on the areas within your family where you need to grow in greater love. Then, go home and love them!

With Him no goal is impossible

Posted on by

February 5
“Jesus does not say ‘no’ to the authentic demands of the heart, but only a clear, loud ‘yes’ to life, to love, to freedom, to peace and to hope. With Him no goal is impossible and even a small act of generosity grows and can lead to change.”
-St. John Paul the Great
Today’s Reflection:
What are the demands of my heart? Are they demands that desire God’s will alone, or are they demands that have grown from my own desires to serve myself?

“Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier.”
-St. Teresa of Calcutta
Today’s Reflection:
In your daily encounter with others, do you keep in mind the impact you can have on them? Do you strive to be an instrument for Christ’s love? Do people leave after an encounter with you striving to be “better and happier”?

“One filled with Joy preaches without preaching.”
-St. Teresa of Calcutta
Today’s Reflection:
What is the underlying meaning of this quote? Do you believe that you are truly filled with joy based on your interactions and encounters with others? Do you “preach without preaching”? Today, ask our Lord to open your heart to a greater outpouring of joy, and await His lovely gift.

Love has a hem to her garment

April 9
“Love has a hem to her garment
That reaches the very dust.
It sweeps the stains
From the streets and lanes,
And because it can, it must.”
-Anonymous poem,
beloved by St. Teresa of Calcutta, describing St. Fabiola
Today’s Reflection:
How dusty has my hem gotten in service of others?

The hunger for love

Posted on by

February 12
“The hunger for love is much more difficult to remove than the hunger for bread.”
-St. Teresa of Calcutta
Today’s Reflection:
What a beautiful reminder it is to know that we all ache for love. And how lucky are we to have a Father who loves us so much. Today, thank God for the love He continually pours out on you, and remember to share that love with every soul you encounter.
