Blessed Mother Teresa

"Until you know deep inside that Jesus thirsts for you, you can't begin to know who He wants to be for you. Or who He wants you to be for Him"  -- Mother Teresa

From the day that Mother Teresa rode on a train in India in 1946 and heard Jesus speak to her, saying, "Come be My light," her life was a steady answer to that call.
