"No modern figure has been more revered as a saint in life, so the rapid progress of Mother Teresa's cause from her death to her canonization within two decades came as no surprise.
"From the day Mother Teresa rode on a train in India in 1946 and heard
Jesus Christ tell her, 'Come be My light,' her life was a steady answer
to that call until her death Sept. 5, 1997. Pope Francis canonized her
in 2016. With her Sept. 5 feast day, the church honors St. Teresa of
Kolkata for committing herself to bring the light of God's love to the
poorest of the poor."
In a recent commentary, writer Amy Welborn reflected on some of Mother Teresa's guidance for living life well.
