The Love That Made Mother Teresa: How Her Secret Visions and Dark Nights Can Help You Conquer the Slums of Your Heart

Do not read this book if you do not want to have your life changed. Don't read it if you don't want to learn what it means to be born for such a time as this, don't read it if you don't want to learn the true meaning of love. But if you want to examine your own conscience, if you want to have your eyes opened to the suffering all around you then by all means read it, digest it, and then make every effort to live it. This book is not a book for entertainment or to simply pass time with. This book will change you in some way. I thought I was going to read another book about Mother Teresa. I read a book about LOVE.

The words of David Scott describing the life and mission of Mother Teresa beautify the life of an amazing woman and child of God. He lends insight to the deeper spiritual meaning of Mother Teresa's life mission which makes his rendition of her life more compelling and meaningful... She was a rare treasure willing to endure all for her Beloved Jesus, and Mr. Scott gives a rational and heroic reason why Mother Teresa would " endure such hardness as a good solider". Her life and ministry truly reflected one who was engaged in the fellowship of His sufferings for the sake of a lost and dying world yet out of her personal darkness we see the power of the resurrection at work in those who would benefit from such a life of sacrifice. These and other insights are revealed as you read this little book that I hope will inspire you, as it has myself, to Go and live this Christian faith as Mother did.

I rated this book five stars because it gave me just what I wanted to understand Mother Theresa.I have been courageousc about her long journey and only wish I would have discovered of her early in my life when I watched her on t.v. I do find it strange that when I found her was when I have a incurable cease and am a the weakest time of my life. I truly will use her message especially for people like me and my family as they suffer more and I. I recommend this book to anyone that's looking for a a better understanding people in all stages of the rest of her journey NAMASTA

This is a very inspirational book.We often think of Mother Teresa as a person with unflinching faith in God. This book spends time getting to know the person behind the saint.This book speaks to the heart of the matter. It's all about love. Love that is unconditional from Our Father. Love that shapes our lives and those around us. We are made in the Image of the Father. I take this to mean that we are perfectly made for His use.This is one of those books that I have turned back page corners to find passages again and again.

If you have read the book "A revolution of Love" by David Scott you do not need to purchase this book. It is the same book with a new name. I guess that is how things are done in the book world. However it was very upsetting when I opened this "new" book and found it was the same as the older book called "A revolution of Love" which I had read last year. So be warned.

What a blessing we have in this tiny saint. A dynamic role model for this age of death we live in. This is an easy read yet brings forth the heart of our dear Mother Teresa.

This is such a beautifully written book, and really provides an intimate glimpse into the heart and life of dear Mother Teresa. As one who looks to her for guidance and prayer, it is a comfort for me to learn more about her, and what some of her struggles were, as well as her triumphs. That she experienced a very dark night of the soul for so many years, is also a source of great consolation to me, and when I read about how she lived her life with such joy, I am deeply inspired. The author writes about Mother Teresa with tenderness and sensitivity. It is very worthwhile reading.

A quick little read that paints more of the picture of our very special Mother Teresa, making such a difference in our time. By attending to the poorest of the poor with her "little ways" like St. Therese The Little Flower, she shows how we all can make a little difference one step at a time, in our own environment - we can all try to be saints too and catch the LOVE fever.

Great book

I very much enjoyed reading it because it explains very clearly what it means to be holy in modern world.

I thought this would be a difficult read but I was so immersed in the book I finished it in two days. It really touched my heart and amazed that I was alive when there was a saint among us.

I would recommend this for anyone - Catholic or not - I am not, but if you want to understand a spiritual quest that inspire you - read this book.

You can always learn more about Blessed Teresa but this book shows how you too can live it. Good and should be read.
