Saint Mother Teresa: I first wrote : Fog and faith and Mother Teresa on her amazing determination to obey the second call (within the first call). Later on, I wrote again about her after reading Come be my light! and being stunned from what she still managed to do in the midst of a dark night. I just watched a recent movie about her and her Sisters (made in 2022) and it is wonderfully and very movingly inspiring: "No greater love". |
