Life's focal point...

  "The greatest tragedy would be 
to come to the end of our lives and realize 
that the Lord was so near, 
and yet we were so far away."
- Fulton Sheen, The Eucharist God Among Us
Retreat on the Priesthood

 
"It is most important that the holy Eucharist
becomes life's focal point:
that the Eucharistic Savior is the center of existence
that every day is received from His hand and laid back therein; 
that the day's happenings are deliberated with Him.
 
In this way, God is given the best opportunity
to be heard in the heart,
to form the soul, 
and to make its faculties clear-sighted 
and alert for the supernatural."
 
St Teresa Benedicta of the Cross (St Edith Stein)
in Essays on Woman
