I Thirst: Saint Therese of Lisieux and Mother Teresa of Calcutta

I Thirst: Saint Therese of Lisieux and Mother Teresa of Calcutta

Alexandra Plettenberg-Serban
4.5/5 ( ratings)
Read Download
The heartfelt bond between Saint Therese of Lisieux and Mother Teresa of Calcutta is to be found in their unalterable desire to slake the thirst of chirst, to console him in the face of the indifference of so many people, to quench his thirst for love, to love him in others and letting them be loved by him. They did so by opening up the floodgates of tenderness which had prevented the love in his heart from being welcomed as it ought. The words, "I Thirst," are to be found side by side with the Crucifix in all the houses of the Missionaries of Charity, and the photograph of St. Therese of Lisieux, patroness of the missions, is never far away. Saint Therese and Mother Teresa are like two mirrors mutually reflecting the compassion of Chirst. These two witnesses, making use of the "little way" of confidence and surrender, accessible to all, were chosen by God to reveal to us His thirst for love.
