"The Eucharist is a fire that inflames us, that,
like lions breathing fire, we may
retire from the altar
being made terrible to the
devil."- St
John Chrysostom
"Consider at whose
table thou
eatest!
For we are fed with
that which the angels view with
trepidation
and which they cannot contemplate without fear because of Its splendor.
and which they cannot contemplate without fear because of Its splendor.
We become one with
Him:
we become one Body and one Flesh with
Christ."
