The mother of world mother teresa history

• Mother Teresa  50 Years of Good Works and Inner Darkness  (1910-1997)

• The wrinkled smiling face shining out from her blue trimmed white religious robes surrounded by poverty stricken children and people of the streets of Calcutta is but one of the enduring images of Mother Teresa.  
• Mother Teresa devoted her life to working with the poor in Calcutta, India. In 1950 she established theMissionaries of Charity. Her deeds of kindness were legendary and her selfless devotion to caring for the poor transcends the record of most humanitarians. She is an icon for charity. By the time of her death in 1997, over 500 Missionaries of Charity Centers were operating in over 100 countries.
• Mother Teresa’s mission in her own words in 1950 was: “…to care for the hungry, the naked, the homeless, the crippled, the blind, the lepers, all those people who feel unwanted, unloved, uncared for throughout society, people that have become a burden to the society and are shunned by everyone."
• If anyone was worthy of receiving awards, private audiences with queens, presidents and other world leaders, honorary degrees, the Nobel Peace Prize, and many other distinctions of honor – it was Mother Teresa
• Could such a life of selfless devotion and sacrifice coupled with decades of good deeds, acts of charity and countless missions of mercy help a person find favour with God and ultimately assure them of eternal life and a home in heaven? 
• Who is qualified to answer this fundamental question? Assuming every person in their right mind wants to arrive in Heaven, an authoritative answer on this matter of finding merit with God is required. If God ruled on this critical subject, would you accept His ruling and final decision?
• God’s Word is clear and unequivocal. Read these verses from the Bible and you will see there is nothing ambiguous with God on the matter of earning salvation or redemptive favourwith God by self efforts. It can’t be done.

50 YEARS OF INNER DARKNESS:

• “I am told God lives in me – and yet the reality of darkness and coldness and emptiness is so great that nothing touches my soul.” And again: “I feel just that terrible pain of loss, of God not wanting me, of God not being God, of God not really existing.”
• Being unwanted, unloved, uncared for, forgotten by everybody, I think that is a much greater hunger, a much greater poverty than the person who has nothing to eat
• I try to give to the poor people for love what the rich could get for money. No, I wouldn't touch a leper for a thousand pounds; yet I willingly cure him for the love of God.
• I want you to be concerned about your next door neighbor. Do you know your next door neighbor?
• If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other
• If you want a love message to be heard, it has got to be sent out. To keep a lamp burning, we have to keep putting oil in it.
