It Is Between You and God
Mother Teresa

People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered; Forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; Be kind anyway. If you are successful you will win some false friends and true enemies; Succeed anyway. If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; Be honest and frank anyway. What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight; Build anyway. If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; Be happy anyway. The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow; Do good anyway. Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; Give the world the best you've got anyway You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God; It was never between you and them anyway.

God often speaks to us through object lessons. One morning, while filling a Gatorade bottle with water, I thought of how people would, at first glance, see that I had Gatorade, but if they looked more closely, they would see that it was water. Then, this thought came: "The container doesn't matter, it's what is inside that counts."
