Listen: Chris Witts presents Morning Devotions. Sometimes on this segment I have spoken of Mother Teresa of Calcutta, someone who is known by millions of people worldwide. Through Mother Teresa’s nearly 4½ decades of life, a grateful world bestowed upon her many awards. The most distinguished was 1979’s Nobel Peace Prize. In 1985 President Reagan presented her with the U. S. Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian award. She received honorary degrees from Harvard University and from Cambridge University in England. She addressed the United Nations in 1985, on its 40th anniversary. At her funeral, nearly a half-million mourners came to say a final goodbye to the little nun who cast such a big shadow on the world. Remarkable to say the least!
