God did not call me to be successful, he called me to be faithful. What are you called to do? Can you be faithful, even when you are not successful?

Although I am not of Mother Theresa's faith (although many in my Family are), she was a person... more than a person... that I greatly admired. I'm not sure if I am successful or FaithFull? All I can do is try to be Faithful, mostly to my family, my parents, my Country & to Humanity.

What a wonderful post Gerty. I rated you a + for it. Yes, I can be faithful, even if I am not successful. I put all my trust in Him. It is always His call, His way, His timing anyway.

I believe you can and should be faithful no matter what. Sometime life can make it wobble a tad but it (to me) always comes back even stronger than it was before.

Mother Theresa is one of my hero, she just remind me every time, who we are, why we are here, what we need to do! By my spitirual friends I'm faithful, and I feel faithful strongly, every day is a miracle, and blessing, I don't waste my time on daily little things, because they can't make differents on me and who I'm, who I love. Every day is a miracle and I'm thankful for HIM! I wake up every morning with smile on my face, and my first word is thank you! I feel great every day. This is nice to talk about. thank you!+++++
