Dear Sister, Mother Teresa continued to love others resisting her trials of faith.

Can you even imagine seeing dying child after dying child in your arms day by day and waking up each morning to see this horror over and over for years?

People who love much are tempted and persecuted much in this world.

Read the lives of the Saints.

Good Night!

She did not "resist her trials of faith." She succumbed to them. She disbelieved. She lost her faith.

The question is was it the love of Christ or was it her love? The fact that she never presented Christ to the dying says it was human love not divine love.

God uses even the unsaved to do His pleasure ..

We can look at her works and know they were kind, and appreciate her without making a woman that doubted God a 'saint" and the focus of devotion
