Episode Synopsis

Cardinal Sarah talks about St. Teresa of Calcutta and describes her humility and devotion to prayer. In the Missionaries of Charity chapel is inscribed “I thirst”.What does it mean to thirst for the love of God? For me it means not being able to get enough, to keep wanting more. The saints are great examples of what is meant to be completely in the presence of God. She was filled with God in her service to the poor not only by giving them drink but by giving them Jesus in each action she took to care for their needs. Sadly, I fill myself with other things and when God is ready to provide this heavenly water, I have no room.Take away: How do you thirst for God? And when Jesus says “I thirst” how are you satisfying him?
