- Episode 178 -- Come Be My Light Appendix B -- Twelfth Day (Becoming Holy)
Did Mother see her life in special relation to Mary?
Yes, she especially wanted to live with the Risen Christ as Our Lady did. She looked on Mary not only as the model of humility as Our Lady of Sorrows, but also as the Queen of Heaven. Mary could teach her how to be joyful.
10 min - Episode 177 -- Come Be My Light Appendix B -- Eleventh Day (Strengthen Resolutions)
Did Mother have a special love for humility?
Yes. She really wanted God to be all in all. She wanted to live for Him alone. She wanted to be completely under his Power. Therefore, she did not care what people said or did to her if He was glorified.
10 min - Episode 176 -- Come Be My Light Appendix B -- Tenth Day (Spirit of Penance and Encouragement)
Did Mother practice penances and mortifications?
Yes. Exterior ones. Interior ones. She also accepted the great torture within her soul for the love of Jesus.
11 min - Episode 175 -- Come Be My Light Appendix B -- Ninth Day (Duties of State and Flexibility)
Did Mother have success in following a plan of life and keeping her resolutions?
Yes. But her notes for the ninth day also show her prudence and her flexibility in keeping her rules. Mother Teresa knew how to live out the true spirit of her plan of life.
10 min - Episode 174 -- Come Be My Light Appendix B -- Eighth Day (Means of Loving Him in Plan of Life)
How did Mother Teresa set up a plan of life?
With great clarity, courage and supernatural outlook. We read about the eighth day of her 1959 retreat, based on the notes that Jesus made her give to him. These notes on the eighth day are incredibly revealing about Mother’s effort to find God.
