β›ͺ Quotes by Mother Teresa - Prayer

– Mother Teresa 

β€œPrayer in action is love, love in action is service.”
– Mother Teresa 

β€œI do not pray for success, I ask for faithfulness.”

β€œPrayer makes your heart bigger, until it is capable of containing the gift of God himself. Prayer begets faith, faith begets love, and love begets service on behalf of the poor.”
– Mother Teresa 

β€œIn 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.”
– Mother Teresa 

β€œI used to pray that God would feed the hungry, or do this or that, but now I pray that he will guide me to do whatever I’m supposed to do, what I can do. I used to pray for answers, but now I’m praying for strength. I used to believe that prayer changes things, but now I know that prayer changes us and we change things.”
– Mother Teresa
