May we be faithful intercessors; praying without ceasing; praying according to God’s will; praying with faith; praying with love; praying with power.
Mother Teresa offers us pearls of wisdom to live a more humble life and to model them with others in our life so we can behave more virtuously and be kind.
Lord, I intercede for all people to live a life of humility:
- To speak as little as possible of one’s self.
- To mind one’s own business.
- Not to want to manage other people’s affairs.
- To avoid curiosity.
- To pass over the mistakes of others.
- To accept insults and injuries.
- To accept being slighted, forgotten and disliked.
- To be kind and gentle even under provocation.
- Never to stand on one’s dignity.
- To choose always the hardest.
Lord, create in us all a clean heart. Amen
