Thes 5:23
"The Mass is said in
order that the whole Church and the whole
of our life may become a Mass, may become Christ's sacrifice always present on
earth. St Francis de Sales resolved that he would spend the whole day preparing
to say Mass, so that whenever anyone asked him what he was doing, he might
always answer, "I am preparing for Mass." We also could resolve to make our
whole lives a participation in the divine mystery of the Redemption, so that
when anyone puts the question to us, we can always answer, "I am saying the Mass. "
