About 'MOTHER TERESA: Come Be My Light':
Compiled and presented by Fr. Brian Kolodiejchuk, M.C., who knew Mother Teresa for twenty years and is the postulator for her cause for sainthood and director of the Mother Teresa Center, MOTHER TERESA brings together letters she wrote to her spiritual advisors over decades. A moving chronicle of her spiritual journey—including moments, indeed years, of utter desolation—these letters reveal the secrets she shared only with her closest confidants. She emerges as a classic mystic whose inner life burned with the fire of charity and whose heart was tested and purified by an intense trial of faith, a true dark night of the soul.
Published to coincide with the tenth anniversary of her death, MOTHER TERESA is an intimate portrait of a woman whose life and work continue to be admired by millions of people.
Come Be My Light is that rare thing, a posthumous
autobiography that could cause a
wholesale reconsideration of a major public
figure — one way or another. It raises questions
about God and faith, the engine behind
great achievement, and the persistence of
love, divine and human. That it does so not in
any organized, intentional form but as a
hodgepodge of desperate notes not intended
for daylight should leave readers only more
convinced that it is authentic — and that they
are, somewhat shockingly, touching the true
inner life of a modern saint.”
