All of life is Precious

All to often, I am guilty of seeing people in various places and summing them up......
Last night I was watching a program about Mother Teresa and I was very convicted that my job is to love as Christ loved and nothing more....no judging, no summing up.

This is a quote from Mother Teresa:
     All life is precious
     from the womb to the tomb
     no matter how we find it

No matter how we find it......we are to love, accept unconditionally, and be Jesus's hands to care for them.......it's not my place to judge how they got in the situation they are in I am only to show LOVE..........

Hugs and blessings,
Nancy

  1. I so love Mother Theresa. So much to learn from her its amazing isn't it. Judging is something my mom use to say if you do it then you have not time to love the person you judge. I also know there is a quote similar to my Mom's thinking that states the same.
    Thanks your comment today as well. Its been hard two weeks..but we are so blessed today!

  4. Nancy, How true this is. I must admit that I must constantly remind myself of this each day, often at work. So many of my patients have problems created by their lifestyles and poor choices they have made. Your blog is so beautiful and your post/s are so inspirational. Hope we can get together soon and spin or knit and chat. Belvadear

  11. Love thAT QUOTE NANCY. Can you tell I can't type on my friend's computer. It's a scrolly laptop- don't like!

    Your post is really a good reminder not to try and figure out how people got where they are, but just to show love and help where we can. I'm so glad that Jesus stays the same and loves us unconditionally no matter what circumstances we find ourselves in that can happen from out own boo boo mistakes.
