Inspirational quotes are some of the most popular on Godinterest.com. A Nobel peace laureate, Mother Teresa (1910–1997) was an Albanian-Indian Roman Catholic nun and missionary. For much of her life, Mother Teresa served the impoverished communities of Calcutta, caring for the sick and sharing the love of Christ and because of that, her very name became a metaphor for selflessness and goodness during her lifetime.
No matter what your belief system, there is much to be learned and gained from someone so selfless and loving, so kind and considerate.
Today, we celebrate her legacy and look back on 25 quotes about God, culture, life and small acts of kindness which people still find inspiring nearly 19 years after her death.

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.
