Mother Teresa of Calcutta: Keep the light of Christ always burning in your heart for he alone is the Way to walk. He is the Life to live. He is the Love to love
Jesus instructed the Twelve as follows: "Remember, I am sending you out like sheep among wolves; so be cunning as serpent and yet as harmless as doves.
'Beware of men: they will hand you over to Sanhedrin and scourge you in their synagogues. You will be dragged before governors and kings for my sake, to bear witness before them and the pagans. But when they hand you over, do not worry about how to speak or what to say; what you are to say will be given to you when the time comes; because it is not you who will be speaking; the Spirit of your Father will be speaking in you. 'Brothers will betray brothers to death, and the father his child; children will rise against their parents and have them put to death.
You will be hated by all men on account of my name; but the man who stands firm to the end will be saved. If they persecute you in one town, take refuge in the next; and if they persecute you in that, take refuge in another. I tell you solemnly, you will not have gone round the towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes.' Mass Readings

Lord Jesus Christ, my Master, your word is frightening, the comforting line is that the Spirit of my Heavenly will be my guide and protector. I surrender my life to you. I am tired of trying to control things beyond me. I give you my life, for I know your love for me will give me the courage I need to obey you. H.G.
