Readings
"I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only love."

"Love is a fruit in season at all times, and within reach of every hand." "If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other."

"We ourselves feel that what we are doing is just a drop in the ocean. But, the ocean would be less because of that drop."
-- Mother Teresa

A Drop in the Ocean Translation:
Our Father, who is in heaven,
Holy is your name.
Your kingdom come,
Your will be done
As it is in heaven and on earth.
Give us today our daily bread,

And forgive our debts
As we forgive our debtors.

And lead us not into temptation
But liberate us from evil.
Amen.

Lord, make me a channel of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love.
Where there is injury, let me sow pardon.
Where there is discord, let me sow harmony.
Where there is error, I may bring truth.
Where there is doubt, let me sow faith.
Where there is despair, let me sow hope.
Where there is darkness, I may bring light.
(Where there is sadness), I may bring joy.
--attrib. St. Francis of Assisi (13th century)

Oh that I had the wings of a dove!
I would fly away.
I would flee far away and be at rest.
I would find my place far from the tempest
and storm.
Ah, Jesus, you are my God.
You are my Spouse.
Jesus my life, my love, my all in all.
--Song of the Sisters of the Calcutta Mission

My work is nothing but a drop in the ocean;
But if I did not put that drop, the ocean would be one drop the less.
--Mother Teresa
