Mother Teresa by Navin Chawla

I was completely and totally humbled and even shamed by this book. It was wonderful, yet it makes me so sad. Mother Teresa and her sisters of the Missionaries of Charity gave up absolutely everything so that they could be on an equal level with the poor, diseased and dying people they serve. They have no more material possessions than the clothes they are wearing and maybe a toothbrush. It makes me ashamed of how materialistic I can be, and I pride myself, on NOT being that materialistic. Their lives are about Christ and the people they serve, and that fills them up completely. All I can say is GOD BLESS THEM!
