doubt & faith
Everyone is familiar with Mother Teresa; all of us admired her dedication as she exemplified the Sermon on the Mount; all of us believed that she must be a woman of great faith without doubts. But doubt she did:
"Where is my faith? Even deep down … there is nothing but emptiness and darkness. ... If there be God — please forgive me... Such deep longing for God ... repulsed, empty, no faith, no love, no zeal... What do I labor for? If there be no God, there can be no soul. If there be no soul then, Jesus, You also are not true."
