"The soul also must be fed.
Where, then, is its food?
When God desired to give a food to our soul
to sustain it in the pilgrimage of life,
He looked upon creation
He looked upon creation
and found nothing that was worthy of it.
Then He turned again to Himself,
and resolved to give Himself...
and resolved to give Himself...
O my soul, how great you are,
since only God can satisfy you!
The food of the soul is the body and blood of God.
O glorious food!
The souls can feed only on God; only God can suffice it;
only God can fill it; only God can satiate its hunger.
Its God is absolutely necessary to it."
St. John Vianney
Patron of all priests
