The life of Mother Teresa really stupefies some people.

They can't possibly understand how sanctity can be associated with "dark" periods, so wed to feelings are they.  So trusting of "emotions" are they.

Mother Teresa, I am convinced, ASKED for a pure love of God, a love given without any strings, a life given to God for the supernatural good of others, with no desire for returned consolations. 

The Catholic Church has no temporal aim, only a supernatural one.  this is something that many people don't understand either. 

If we truly love someone..."we will do for them" without any contingency or expectation of returned benefit, not even "feelings".  

This is what the Mother Teresa haters don't get....the supernatural aim of her work.   They see with only secular eyes, even the so-called Catholic critics.
