Saint Teresa of Avila on Serving Others With Love & Compassion in Imitation of Christ

Christ has no body now, but yours.

No hands, no feet on earth, but yours.

Yours are the eyes through which

Christ looks compassion into the world.

Yours are the feet

With which Christ walks to do good.

Yours are the hands

With which Christ blesses the world.

— St. Teresa of Avila
