The GOAL...

 "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."


Bl Charles de Foucauld, pray for us!
