Mother Theresa Story

Her secret life

Personal life marked by great personal strain. A new book that makrs some of her writings say that within her was "nothing but emptiness and darkness" In addition, she doubted Heaven, God and at times wrote she had "no faith"
Apparently, this is a huge shock to some but don't you think if you saw some of the things that she saw you would write the same?
I guess the question is, could your faith withstand seeing all she saw?

Re: Mother Theresa Story

considering some of the things she saw and faced on a daily basis, yes i could see her losing a little faith at times but i think ultimately she did have her faith and thats what gave her the strength to continue to help others
thanks for posting this I am going to look for this book i have always found her to be interesting and inspirational

I would wish that someone always had hope. Seeing the poverty & the uncaring people, I could understand why she would have her doubts.

I don't believe that anyone tested that much could have unshakeable faith.

Re: Mother Theresa Story

i think to doubt god at time is human.
if we were always living in a pure and perfect state of grace we wouldn't be human, we'd be God- so this isn't surprising at all to me...
