"Where there is great love, there are always great miracles." Sean Patrick Lovett saw these words above the door of a leprosy hospital in Mother Teresa's Calcutta. For him they summed up the unique character of Mother Teresa's work where all, especially those for whom the world has no love, are loved by the saintly Yugoslavian nun and her sisters. When asked about this, Mother Teresa replies that she simply sees Christ in everybody, and that it is her duty to love him. This book brings together a series of meditations by Mother Teresa on the various aspects of Christian love. These include purity, joy, hunger, death, friendship, faith, prayer, God our Father, Mary our Mother, forgiveness, the family and vocation.
