Could you imagine being woken up in the middle of the night because of a great desire to be with someone? For Mother Teresa, it was her desire to be with Jesus. She had a deep, supernatural union with God that gave her the experience of divinely-inspired thirst for Him. A living relationship with Jesus that brings her to this mystical state of ecstasy.
This episode is the second part of the new series on Mother Teresa that talks about the beauty of the relationship Mother Teresa had with Jesus, and how it relates to all of us. It is also an invitation for us to recognize this desire that Mother Teresa had and the desire that God has for her and for all of us.

But part of the mystery is that in this lowliness, God mainly manifests His love for us and reveals His heart for us, and Jesus embodies this kind of lowliness. In this…

Define the Relationship
Being in relationship with God looks like we’re sitting down in front of a big table with Him, and what a deeper conversion and deeper healing means is that we are willing to be at this table and we are willing to lay out everything here for the Lord to see. He sits us down…
