Many look with awe and admiration at the life of Mother Teresa and her profound love of the poor.
Her example can be intimidating and it can seem like an impossible goal to achieve.
However, Mother Teresa believed that everyone can love the poor, but that it must start in the home.
She said these words to the American people when receiving the Presidential Medal of Freedom from President Ronald Reagan.
In many ways this is more difficult than loving the poor! We don't always see the poor everyday, but we do live with our own family members, or see them very frequently. They are the ones we need to love first.
If we don't love our own family, how can we expect to ever love the poor?
Love your family.
