Love to be real, it must cost—it must hurt—it must empty us of self.

Love to be real, it must cost—it must hurt—it must empty us of self.

Love, Christian, Hurt

Mother Teresa, Mother Teresa of Calcutta (2010). “In the Heart of the World: Thoughts, Stories & Prayers”, p.45, New World Library

Love until it hurts. Real love is always painful and hurts: then it is real and pure.

Love, Hurt, Pain

Mother Teresa (1987). “My Life for the Poor”

We cannot condemn or judge or pass words that will hurt people. We don't know in what way God is appearing to that soul and what God is drawing that soul to; therefore, who are we to condemn anybody?

Hurt, Drawing, People

Do you really know the living Jesus - not from books but from being with Him in your heart? Have you heard the loving words He speaks to you?... The devil may try to use the hurts of life, and sometimes our own mistakes - to make you feel it is impossible that Jesus really loves you, is really cleaving to you. This is a danger for all of us. And so sad, because it is completely the opposite of what Jesus is really wanting, waiting to tell you. Not only that He loves you, but even more - He longs for you.

Faith, Jesus, Hurt

You must give what will cost you something. This, then, is not just giving what you can live without but what you can't live without or don't want to live without, something you really like. Then your gift becomes a sacrifice, which will have value before God. Any sacrifice is useful if it is done out of love. This giving until it hurts - this sacrifice - is what I call love in action.

Hurt, Sacrifice, Giving

"A Simple Path".

A sacrifice to be real must cost, must hurt, and must empty ourselves. Give yourself fully to God. He will use you to accomplish great things on the condition that you believe much more in his love than in your weakness.

Hurt, Real, Believe

Following Jesus is simple, but not easy. Love until it hurts, and then love more.

Love, Jesus, Hurt

When you love till it hurts, there will be no hurt left, just love.

Hurt, It Hurts, Left

When Christ said: I was hungry and you fed me, he didn't mean only the hunger for bread and for food; he also meant the hunger to be loved. Jesus himself experienced this loneliness. He came amongst his own and his own received him not, and it hurt him then and it has kept on hurting him. The same hunger, the same loneliness, the same having no one to be accepted by and to be loved and wanted by. Every human being in that case resembles Christ in his loneliness; and that is the hardest part, that's real hunger.

Love, Sad, Hurt

Teresa (Mother), Roger (frère) (1986). “Meditations on the Way of the Cross”, Burns & Oates

Let us not love by words alone, but let us love until it hurts.

Hurt, Saint, Serving Others

Give, but give until it hurts.

Inspirational, Inspiring, Hurt

Nothing makes you happier than when you really reach out in mercy to someone who is badly hurt.

Hurt, Mercy, Reach Out

I must be willing to give whatever it takes to do good to others. This requires that I be willing to give until it hurts. Otherwise, there is no true love in me, and I bring injustice, not peace, to those around me.

Hurt, Giving, Injustice

Mother Teresa of Calcutta (2010). “In the Heart of the World: Thoughts, Stories & Prayers (Easyread Large Edition)”, p.25, ReadHowYouWant.com

Love means to be willing to give until it hurts.

Hurt, Mean, Giving

Mother Teresa's address at the National Prayer Breakfast (Sponsored by the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives), www.ewtn.com. February 3, 1994.

A sacrifice to be real must cost, must hurt, must empty ourselves.

Hurt, Real, Sacrifice

I feel the greatest destroyer of peace today is 'Abortion', because it is a war against the child... A direct killing of the innocent child, 'Murder' by the mother herself... And if we can accept that a mother can kill even her own child, how can we tell other people not to kill one another? How do we persuade a woman not to have an abortion? As always, we must persuade her with love... And we remind ourselves that love means to be willing to give until it hurts.

Mother, Hurt, Children

One thing I ask you to do, you people who have the pen in your hand, allow God to use you so that you never write anything that will destroy, that will hurt, but always take the trouble to write something beautiful, to help the people to see better, to love better, to come closer... to each other.

Beautiful, Hurt, Writing

Jesus taught us how to forgive out of love, how to forget out of humility. So let us examine our hearts and see if there is any unforgiven hurt -- any unforgotten bitterness! It is easy to love those who are far away. It isn't always easy to love those who are right next to us. It is easier to offer food to the hungry than to answer the lonely suffering of someone who lacks love right in one

Lonely, Hurt, Jesus

True love is love that causes us pain, that hurts, and yet brings us joy. That is why we must pray to God and ask Him to give us the courage to love

Hurt, Pain, Love Is

Mother Teresa (2016). “No Greater Love, Commemorative Edition”, p.27, New World Library

Give the world the best you have and you may get hurt. Give the world your best anyway.

Inspirational, Motivational, Hurt

They should give until it hurts, maybe a very small thing, maybe just a packet of cigarettes, but instead of by smoking that one packet, maybe I share that packet with somebody who has not got even one cigarette, and that's the beginning of love, to give until it hurts.

Hurt, Giving, Smoking

Mother Teresa (2016). “A Call to Mercy: Hearts to Love, Hands to Serve”, p.26, Image

Thou shall love the Lord with thy whole heart, soul, and mind. This is the commandment of the Great God, and he cannot command the impossible. Love is a fruit in season at all times and within reach of every hand. Anyone may gather it and no limit is set. Everyone can reach this love through meditation, spirit of prayer, and sacrifice by an intense inner life. There is no limit because God is love, love is God, God's love is infinite. But part is to love and to give until it hurts. That's why it is not how much you do, but how much love you put into the action.

Hurt, Prayer, Love You

There is so much love in us all, but often we are too shy to express our love, and keep it bottled up inside us. We must learn to love, to love until it hurts, and we will know how to accept love.

Hurt, Shy, Our Love
