Ave Maria Meditations
Always have the courage to say sorry
Be kind, be compassionate
Control your judgements
Don’t let yourself get discouraged
Every minute is precious don’t waste your time
Find out what is nice in each other
Give until it hurts
Have deep respect for each other
If you really want to love God, love one another
Just do small things with great love
Keep your heart clean
Learn to pray, love to pray, and pray often
Make time for each other in your family
Never tell lies
Only believe you are precious to HIM
Put love in whatever you do
Quite alot of people have forgotten what love is, so begin to give the joy of loving
Refrain from prejudice
Smile at each other
Take the trouble to listen
Use your talents for the glory of God
Very often, we look but we don’t see. Let us look AND see
When humiliation comes, accept it and offer it
eXcuse rather than accuse
You must learn to forgive
Zeal is a second name for love. Do not lose that zeal!
These thougths are very necessary today, when people think being agressive and cruel they will be happy! But this is a total madness. We just can be happy being good, loving, being kind.
I would like to share with you all this other speech of Mother Teresa.

Her life is an example for others. The truth of her life in Jesus’ service is opposite the worlds view. Forgive not revenge or hate. True peace comes from keeping strife out of your mind and accepting troubles with calm patience and thanksgiving. Prayer is essential to peaceful living. Give your worry to Jesus and let come what may in knowledge He is in total control over every event in your life for your own best interests.
If everybody would follow these guidelines, the world would be a much better place to live and people would be happy. Let’s teach by example.

Love always conquers at the end.
The real beauty of her philosophy is the expression of love in everything the Missionaries of Charity do. But they are grounded in reality. They work hard and are genuinely devoted to serving God and the poorest of the poor. They will break out into joyous song without warning and their happiness is infectious. I can honestly say they are the most joyful group of people I have ever seen.
These words ring as true as they did then. Too many times the word saint is used to describe people who don’t quite fit the title. And then there is Mother Teresa. She surely was one that was so selfless, so devoted to God, and simply lived with an unbreakable faith. She was made fun of at times, people questioned if she was as good as people said she was. How sad that people could not have anything better to do than to try to destroy this wonderful lady and her reputation. I am inspired by these words, and would like to live by them. Bless you all.
I have already commented but I would like to share a video about Mother Teresa. It’s a short but very beautiful video about her, with a beatiful song.
Please, check out.
