St Theresa of Calcutta

Prayer of Mother Teresa of Calcutta:

Lord, when I am hungry, send me someone who needs food;
When I am thirsty, send me someone who needs a drink;
When I am cold, send me someone to be warmed;
When I am distressed, send me someone to console;
When my cross is becoming heavy, send me someone with whom to share his cross;
When I am poor, lead me to someone who is in need;
When I ave no time left, send me someone whom I might help for a few moments;
When I am humiliated, help me to find someone to praise;
When I am discouraged, send me someone to encourage;
When I need to be understood by others, send me someone to care for; and,
When I only think of myself, attract my attention to someone else.
