Majka Tereza - Svetica tame

“What am I working for? If there is no God, then there can be no soul either. If there is no soul, then you can’t be true, Jesus!” wrote Mother Teresa in her notebook. Recently published personal letters and notes reveal Mother Teresa’s profound spiritual crisis and shake the image of the “pious nun” to its foundations. How do such sentences fit with the image of the committed missionary, who felt that her work was ordered by God? Are they the cries for help of a physically and spiritually burned out woman, who hoped to hide her condition from the world in this way, or are they the kind of experiences that only “mystically gifted Christians” have?
