A Drop in the Ocean


We ourselves feel that what we are doing
is just a drop in the ocean.
But the ocean would be less
because of that missing drop.
—Mother Teresa of Calcutta

    It often baffles me how Mother Teresa, towards the end of her life, admitted to not feeling Jesus with her.

    It is quite obvious to me that He was right there, ispiring us through her loving ways, humble work and beautiful words.

    I am in awe of her great humility in His presence. Mother Teresa was one of the most famous women to ever walk the earth. Yet, she never became full of herself, but rather, full of Him.

    I wish I were a drop in the ocean.
