"Our
entire existence, our whole being must shout the Gospel
from
the
rooftops. Our entire person must
breathe Jesus, all our
actions.
Our whole life must cry
out that we belong to
Jesus, reflect a Gospel
way of
living. Our whole being must be a living
proclamation,
a reflection of
Jesus." - Bl Charles de
Foucauld
"The
goal of every human life should
be
the
adoration of the Blessed Sacrament."

Charles returned to
the Faith, after living an immoral life. Regarding his conversion, Charles
said,
"The moment I realized that God existed, I knew I could not do otherwise than to live for Him alone. …My religious vocation dates from the same moment as my faith: God is so great. There is such a difference between God and everything that is not."
