The hungry soul: satisfied...

The Lord's Day is the lord of days 
but also remembering today...
St John Vianney

"All the good works in the world are not 
equal to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass 
because they are the works of men; 
but the Mass is the work of God.  
Martyrdom is nothing in comparison 
for it is but the sacrifice of man to God; 
but the Mass is the sacrifice of God for man."  
St John Vianney


"A mortal man, a creature
feeds himself, satiates himself, with his God, 
taking him for his daily bread, his drink ...
O miracle of miracles! ... 
O love of loves! ... 
O joy of joys!"

St John Vianney

Remain humble, remain simple.  
The more you are so, the more 
good you will do." - St John Vianney

"Oh, how I like those little mortifications 
that are seen by nobody, such as 
rising a quarter of an hour sooner, rising for a little 
while in the night to pray!" St John Vianney

"Prayer is the inner bath of love into which
 the soul plunges itself." - St John Vianney
