A look back at a Karen's Korner on this date, January 21, 2011. From Mother Teresa:

"Within the church some do one thing,
others do a different thing.
What is important is that all of us remain united,
each one of us developing his/her own specific task.
 
* 
 
"To possess God we must allow him
to possess our souls. How poor we would be
if God had not given us the power of giving
ourselves to him; how rich we are now!
 
*
 
"We shall not waste our time in looking
for extraordinary experiences in our life but
live by pure faith, ever watchful and ready
for his coming by doing our day-to-day
duties with extraordinary love and devotion.
*
 
"Bring prayer in your family, bring it to your
little children. Teach them to pray.
For a child that prays is a happy child.
A family that prays is a united family.
 
*
 
""In loving and serving, we prove that we have
been created in the likeness of God,
for God is love and when we love we are like God.
This is what Jesus meant when he said,
'Be perfect as your Father in heaven is perfect.'
 
*
 
"Gandhi once said that if Christians
were really Christians, there would be no
Hindus in India. People expect us to
fully live our Christian life."
