230 Mother Teresa of Calcutta: Loving Jesus With the Heart of Mary

Jesus calls you to be with Him today, waiting for you with great desire. "I have called you by name...because you are precious in My eyes and glorious, and because I LOVE YOU." All the love in all the world since the beginning of time is only a drop in the ocean in comparison to the love Jesus has for you alone in this Holy Eucharist, the continuation of His incarnation on earth, the fulfillment of His name: "Emmanuel, God is with us."

231 Fathers of the Church - St Irenaeus

The womb of Our Immaculate Mother Mary is "wholly untouched, not dug nor sown, from heaven's dew alone, it brings forth a Savior, and provides mortal men with the Bread of angels and the food of eternal life."

232 Blessed Gueric of Igny

"From one grain of corn which a virgin's womb brought forth an abundant harvest of faithful souls has grown all over the world."

233 Saint Louis de Montfort

"O Mother of Mercy, be filled with your Son's glory, and leave what you have over to your little ones (Ps. 16:4). You are now at the table, we are dogs under the table (Mt. 15:27). Like a maid with her eyes on the hands of her mistress (Ps. 122:2) this hungry family looks to you for the food of life. Through you we have shared in the fruit of life at the table of these present sacraments. Through you may we share at the table of everlasting joys in the same fruit of life, Jesus, the blessed Fruit of your womb, to whom be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen."

234 Blessed Dina Belanger

"If souls but understood the Treasure they possess in the Divine Eucharist, it would be necessary to encircle the tabernacles with the strongest ramparts for, in the delirium of a devouring and holy hunger, they would press forward themselves to feed on the Bread of Angels. The Churches would overflow with adorers consumed with love for the Divine prisoner no less by night than by day."

236 Saint John Vianney

"What happiness do we not feel in the Presence of God, when we are alone at His feet... Redouble your fervor; you are alone to adore your God; His eyes rest upon you alone."
