Sweetest JOY

 Ring out your joy to the Lord, O you just; 

for praise is fitting for loyal hearts. - Psalm 33:1

 

 

"My sweetest Joy is to be in the presence

of Jesus in the holy Sacrament.

I beg that when obliged to withdraw in body,

I may leave my heart before the holy Sacrament.

How I would miss Our Lord if He were to be

away from me by His presence in the Blessed Sacrament!"

 “And here is the passive way – to be filled unto the fullness of God. The passive way – I abandon myself to it, not in a multiplicity of trials, extraordinary penances accomplished, practices of great works – but in peaceful abandonment to the tenderness of Jesus, which I must try to imitate, and by being in constant union with his meek and humble heart.” - St Katharine Drexel
