“There it was (in Eucharistic Adoration) that St. Francis Xavier found refreshment in the midst of his many labors in India; for he employed his days in toiling for souls, and his nights in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament.

St. John Francis Regis did the same thing; and sometimes finding the church closed, he endeavored to satisfy his longings by remaining on his knees, outside the door exposed to the rain and cold so that at least at a distance he might attend upon his Comforter concealed under the sacramental species.

St. Francis of Assisi used to go to communicate all his labors and undertakings to Jesus in the most Holy Sacrament.”
