God’s Not Asking You to Be Successful

from The Fr. Mike Schmitz Catholic Podcast · host Ascension

"God does not ask us to be successful, He asks us to be faithful." - St. Mother Teresa of Calcutta Fr. Mike Schmitz reflects on this quote along with the way St. Mother Teresa lived her life. So often we measure our lives by worldly success, however God wants your faithfulness, not your success. Let us always say, "God let me honor you with my effort."
