Modern people, and most people who call themselves Christians, think that going to Church on Sunday, saying some things, and being nice to people is what it is all about. They are completely missing the mark. Those kind of things are just the tip of the iceberg. Mother Teresa helped others by loving God above all things, putting Him first in her life, and doing His Will no matter how painful it was for her, and it was very painful.
.
Mother spent most of her life in a dark night with no real feeling or personal knowledge of God. This is very common with the founders of religious orders, they are strong enough in their faith to make their way through life totally depend on Faith, Hope, and Charity: the three cardinal virtues bestowed on us in Baptism. She sacrificed herself completely for God, and was called a saint and a prophet for it.
.
Mother Theresa helped others the way we are all called to help others, by getting up in the morning, and taking some to give to God first. She spend an hour in Adoration before the Blessed Sacrament, went to Holy Mass, received Our Blessed Lord in the Eucharist, and went to confession frequently, and regularly. And, then, when she had done these things, she went out and lived her faith by seeing her God in every individual in front of her, especially the poor, the sick, the aged, and the abandoned. She served God by serving Him in them - which is nothing more nor less than she lived the Gospel with every breath in her body.
.
Mother Teresa showed compassion for those who were less fortunate than she was. She gave them food, lifted their spirits, and helped them survive. She is and was considered a hero to many people. After her death, she was put on the short list for canonization, and in 2012 I believe she has already had one miracle attributed to her, and has been beatified. Of course, she loved children.
.
The Church often says that the only real way to help people, the way to become a good spouse, parent, teacher, or whatever, is to become a saint. Mother Teresa believed and lived this. She helped the poor by becoming a saint.
.
The various ways that she accomplished that was that she always did the Will of God even when she didn't feel as if God was there or approving of her. She cared for the poorest of the poor.
She established hospices and hospitals for the sick and dying, she started in Calcutta as she started a new religious order, the Missionaries of Charity, which spread throughout the world. Today the Order still cares for the poorest of the poor, the sick and dying. Mother Theresa and her nuns went out into the streets and picked up the dying homeless to bring them to her hospice. They clean them, feed them, pray with them, and serve them so that they spend their last days or hours in dignity. She and her Order treat those dying of AIDS, the lepers, the untouchables, those whom nobody else will love and care for. She saw Our Blessed Lord in everyone of them, in disguise, pleading for our help and love.
it changed her life because she was able to put aside what she had previously did. the last the is that she help lots and lots of men ,women, and children who were homeless etc.
she learned the way to treat others and how to accept the suffering in life.
Mother Teresa became a Christian when she was baptized the day after her birth.
The Bible
When she became a sister of the Loreto order it was customary to change your name to signify the change in your life.
The most important woman in the bible is the Mary the mother of Jesus, because she gave life to Jesus, and called "blessed among women."
give her your love make sure you change your life without having unecessary things.Make her happy from that day upto the end of your life.
Absolutely Not!
Go to a good bible believing church in your town and "change" your life....it's worth it
No the bible says you should honor your father and mother so that your life will be long on this earth.

The whole bible is the book of life one book one life
Christians do use the bible as a reference for life.
First, are you really dishonoring her? Do you do what she asks? Keep in mind if she tells you to do something against God, honor God, not her. But if she has your best interest in mind, then yes, if you are trying to do what is right, God sees that. I know the Bible says if you honor your father and mother you will have long life, but it doesn't say if you don't that you will have a short life. If you try to live wisely, your life will likely be longer. if you don't, you may not. Sometimes God's word is just sensible advice. Remember, God loves you no matter what! Do the best you can to honor your mother, and when you can't, God forgives you, and probably your mother too.
Mans life span changed greatly in the bible, till the flood and Noah manned lived seven to nine hundred years, then after the flood it is 70 years as the Psalms 90 says mans life is three score and a half.
