[...] Look. I know it’s taboo to talk poop. It’s even more taboo to talk about what you do while you poop. But let’s be honest…you know you do it. Yes, everybody poops…but now most of you are doing it with your smartphone. (If you don’t like talking about poop, try this other post I wrote instead.) [...]

I am very glad you posted these. Im very young still and have no authority in my home, and even though i would love to go to church every sunday, my parents find it useless. I try to be a good catholic/christian but its very hard when my parents lost sight of what that means a long time ago. Reading these show me that other than praying before i go to bed each night, i can still make my every day actions
holy as well.

Thank you for posting. Will print out!
Will share at next week’s study group.
And now to go home and invest some time in housework. (Never tire?)

Her early grace-filled statements witness to us so strongly.
[From before dawn til into the night, she speaks to us of following Jesus in practical terms: serving, praying always - infusing action with a metaphysical dimension of the presence of Christ}
Yet her night is so dark, her refusing to 'give up' so tenaceous, that she must be a beacon in our darkness (the darkness of doubt that besets som many modern Christians).
In a strange way she points to Christ for we are not allowed to rely on her.
[Only ever had a query re Mother Teresa:
surely if we serve 'Christ in them' we fail to see the individual before us - surely we must serve each as valuable in and of themselves as members of a humanity that God sent His Son to Save and that Christ was willing to die for - to serve them because of Christ not because they are Christ?
But how can we not but love this woman who so personified LOVE?]

I read this at our Catholic Schools prayer group yesterday. Everyone had moments of “ouch” as well as moments of encouragement. Thanks for the great reflections. Blessed Mother Teresa pray for us!
