Слайд 38Words Of Wisdom From Mother Teresa
Слайд 39“Not all of us can do great things. But we can
do small things with great love.”
Слайд 40“How can there be too many children? That is like saying
there are too many flowers.”
Слайд 41“Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their
echoes are truly endless.”
Слайд 42“Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of
love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing.”
Слайд 43“A life not lived for others is not a life.”
Слайд 44“I can do things you cannot, you can do things I
cannot; together we can do great things.”
Слайд 45“It's not how much we give but how much love we
put into giving.”
Слайд 46“Love is a fruit in season at all times and within
reach of every hand.”
Слайд 47“In the silence of the heart God speaks. If you face
God in prayer and silence, God will speak to you. Then you will know that you are nothing. It is only when you realize your nothingness, your emptiness, that God can fill you with Himself. Souls of prayer are souls of great silence.”
Слайд 48"If you judge people, you have no time to love them."
Слайд 49“Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and
happier. Be the living expression of God's kindness:
kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile.”

because God loves a cheerful giver.”

us of self.”

always start with the person nearest you.”
Слайд 55“God doesn't require us to succeed, he only requires that you
try.”
