In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Think Global, Act Local.”
“Think global, act local.” Write a post connecting a global issue to a personal one.”

One of the books I’m reading for my morning devotionals is a volume of wisdom by Mother Teresa. When I read today’s Daily Prompt, I immediately thought of her. If anyone personifies acting locally and reaching the whole world, it would be this tiny, but spiritually strong lady. Though her life on this earth has ended, her wisdom and witness live on.
“We need to give Christ a chance to make use of us, to be His word and His work, to share His food and His clothing in the world today. If we do not radiate the light of Christ around us, the sense of darkness that prevails in the world will increase.”“Mother Teresa/No Greater Love.”
I have written many a post regarding Mother Teresa–she continues to be a guiding star in my life—thank you for your beautiful showcase of this amazing tiny woman—-
