Living with Christ Morning Prayer

Bl. Teresa of Calcutta
Lord, when I hear
how others praise and pray to you,
giving themselves to you without reserve,
I am ashamed of my own misgivings
and half-heartedness.
Fill me with such love for you
that I may long to give myself to you too.
Let the lesser loves of everyday life
take their proper place in my affections,
leaving you first.
Here I am, Lord, body, heart and soul.
Grant that with your love
I may be big enough to reach the world
and small enough to be at one with you. Amen.
- Bl. Teresa of Calcutta
