This is a true story and my personal experience with Mother Teresa.

On a whim, while visiting Calcutta, India in the 1980s my husband and I decide to go and visit Mother Teresa. After walking through very dismal conditions for people living on the streets we arrive at her Mission of Charity.

On arrival, a Nun greets us at the door inquiring as to why we were here. I told her we want to meet Mother Theresa. She left briefly and on her return said, “Mother will see you now.” It shocked me so much to know there was Mother Teresa behind the door the Nun was approaching.

I stopped her for some reason I suddenly did not feel we should take her time.

Instead, I ask the Nun take us upstairs where the nuns were praying. I told her I changed my mind.

I have pondered many times as to why I chose this path and believe it is because I really did not believe I would meet her. Then when she was behind the door I did not feel worthy to take her time.

Accept your blessings before they come or you may refuse them when they arrive.
You are worthy!
