How consoling is the Eucharist! ...

“If you lean with all your weight upon Providence,

you will find yourselves well supported.” - St Theodore

 

"How consoling is the mystery of the Eucharist! 

If we knew how to appreciate it,

it would suffice to fortify and sustain us.

Is there anything sweeter than to have a friend

to whom we may at any hour

confide our difficulties and our pain?"

St Theodore Guerin
