Theme: Compassionate ActionScripture: Matthew 25:34-40Reflection: Mother Teresa on Serving Others with LoveMatthew 25:34-40 NRSV"Then the king will say to those at his right hand, ‘Come, you that are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.’ Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when was it that we saw you hungry and gave you food, or thirsty and gave you drink? And when was it that we saw you a stranger and welcomed you, or naked and clothed you? And when was it that we saw you sick or in prison and visited you?’ And the king will answer them, ‘Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me.’"Mother Teresa, Various Writings and Speeches"Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love.”"The most terrible poverty is loneliness, and the feeling of being unloved.”"Love cannot remain by itself – it has no meaning. Love has to be put into action, and that action is service." Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
