“God made the world for the delight of human beings-- if we could see His goodness everywhere, His concern for us, His awareness of our needs: the phone call we've waited for, the ride we are offered, the letter in the mail, just the little things He does for us throughout the day. As we remember and notice His love for us, we just begin to fall in love with Him because He is so busy with us -- you just can't resist Him. I believe there's no such thing as luck in life, it's God's love, it's His.”
-Mother Teresa, A Simple Path: Mother Teresa
How can anyone not be inspired by Mother Teresa. She had such a deep, deep, deep sense of the goodness of God that translated into the goodness she has done for the world. Truly, as i appropriate her perspective --- goodness is everywhere.
I close my February days with gratitude for the grace accorded me: the gift of life, family, friends, the good and not-so-good days, a safe trip, the white wall with green flower cutouts, and a cup of tea.
