Happy New Year! A couple of items from a daily flip calendar of thoughts and writings from Mother Teresa for December 29 and 30; plus a prayer for December 31 from the same calendar titled "Heart of Joy":
 
** Each time anyone comes in contact with us,
they must become different and better people
because of having met us.
We must radiate God's love.
 
** Jesus wants to live his life in you,
to look through your eyes,
walk with your feet, love with your heart.
 
**
 
Dear Lord,
Shine through me,
and be so in me that every soul
I come in contact with may feel your presence
in my soul. Let them look up and see no longer me,
but only you, O Lord! Stay with me,
then I shall begin to shine as you do;
so to shine as to be a light to others....
Let me thus praise you in the way you love best,
by shining on those around me.
 
~~ Cardinal Newman
