Prayer of Blessed Teresa of Calcutta
Blessed Teresa of Calcutta, longing to love Jesus as He had never been loved before, you gave yourself entirely to Him, refusing Him nothing. In union with the Immaculate Heart of Mary, you accepted His call to satiate His infinite thirst for love and souls and become a carrier of His love to the poorest of the poor. With loving trust and total surrender, you fulfilled His will, witnessing to the joy of totally belonging to Him. You became so intimately united to Jesus, your crucified spouse, that He deigned to share with you the agony of His heart as He hung upon the cross. Blessed Teresa you promised to continuously bring the light of love to those on earth; pray for us that we also may long to satiate the burning thirst of Jesus by loving Him ardently, share in His suffering joyfully, and serving Him wholeheartedly in our brothers and sisters, especially those most unloved and unwanted.
