Mother Teresa on Cheerfulness

Mother teaches that:


Joy is prayer, joy is strength,
joy is love,
a net by which to catch souls.

God loves a cheerful giver;
he gives most who gives with joy.

The best way to show your gratitude
to God and to people is to
accept everything with joy.

A sister filled with joy is like
the sunshine of God's love,
the hope of eternal happiness,
the flame of burning love.

Never let anything so fill you with
sorrow as to make you forget
the joy of the risen Christ.
