Mother Teresa. The major themes of the volume are as follows:

- The Fruit of Love is Service.

The layout of the book builds up to peace from the fruit of
silence which is prayer. This is a spiritual rendition by
the author born of modest parents some 95 years ago. It should

everywhere.
Review Summary: Encouraging
Date: 2000-03-04
Details: This is a wonderful book. The layout allows you to read only a few of the entries or, if inspired, the whole book. As always, what Mother Teresa says is touching and simply profound. The meditations found in this book allow you to witness the beauty of a life of service.
