The Look of Love

Of the Blessed Sacrament Saint Bernard has written:

"The divine is hidden; the human is hidden;

love alone is left for all to see."

 

"To participate in the Mass here and now is not a matter of looking down or looking around, but of looking up - it's a taste of what awaits us, through the grace and mercy of God, for all eternity.  

True worship, like true love, doesn't mean looking into each other's eyes; it means looking together, in love, at the One who is Love all the way through."
