Mother Teresea

[Rogerteder]

Anyone here have a special devotion to Mother Teresa of Calcutta? Do you pray for her intercession and cause for sainthood daily?

I would love it when the Catholic Church declares her a saint but to me she is a saint already

 

[Luigi_Daniele]

I do.

I pray her prayer for healthcare workers every day that I am at work:

"O Jesus, You who suffer, grant that today and everyday I may be able to see You in the person of Your sick ones, and that by offering them my care, I may serve You.

Grant that, even if you are hidden under the unattractive disguise of anger, of crime, or of mental illness, I may recognize You and say, "Jesus, You who suffer, how sweet it is to serve You."

Give me, Lord, this vision of faith, and my work will never be monotonous. I will find joy in fulfilling the needs, both great and small, of the poor who suffer. Dear forgotten one, you are even more beloved to me because you represent Christ. What a privilege I am granted in being able to take care of you.

O God, since You are Jesus who suffers, be for me also a Jesus who is patient, indulgent with my faults, who only looks at my intentions, which are to love You and to serve You in the person of each of these children of Yours who suffer.

Lord, increase my faith. Bless my efforts and my work, now and forever. Amen."
