“The Eucharist is the Sacrament of Love; It signifies Love, It produces love. The Eucharist is the consummation of the whole spiritual life.”
~ Saint Thomas Aquinas
“We become what we love and who we love shapes what we become. If we love things, we become a thing. If we love nothing, we become nothing. Imitation is not a literal mimicking of Christ, rather it means becoming the image of the beloved, an image disclosed through transformation. This means we are to become vessels of God´s compassionate love for others.”
~ St. Clare of Assisi
“Patience attains All that it strives for. He who has God Finds he lacks nothing: God alone suffices.”
“It is love alone that gives worth to all things”
~ St. Teresa of Avila
I don’t know that these quotes have anything to do with these pictures, but they’re certainly great quotes, and they happen to be on my desktop at the moment.
St. Jane is a beautiful little Church, and it’s surprisingly not as small as it looks. And it’s a very loving and friendly community.
Off into the weekend ~~~ Pax Christi.
As I looked at the picture and thought of the Eucharist, I could discover a connection between the sayings and the pictures.
