Adoro te devote, latens Deitas, quae sub his figuris vere latitas: tibi se cor meum totum subjicit, quia te contemplans totum deficit. *** Godhead here in hiding, whom I do adore, Masked by these bare shadows, shape and nothing more, See, Lord, at thy service low lies here a heart, Lost, all lost in wonder at the God thou art.

Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta
Who doesn't love Mother Teresa? What an inspiration of what God can do with one small person completely open to His will.
I drew the above portrait shortly after her death, one night as I sat at my night job, seeking God, seeking to come home, but not knowing what I believed. But one thing I knew, even in my fog; Mother Teresa was holy, and she was someone to look to as an example in how to live and how to follow Christ.

Well there are some people who don't like M.T.. But they are usually pretty shriveled up people. Sad cases, like Christopher Hitchins.

Most people, whether they are atheist, protestant, lapsed Catholic,what have you, all seemed to recognize Mother as special. Even if they didn't like her they knew she had "it" and was special.
