“Take and eat: bread is not made to be put behind a glass or kept in an urn, but to be food and daily food. The greatest compliment you can pay good bread, is it not to eat it?

O Flesh and Blood of Jesus, true food and drink of souls, I adore you. I hunger and thirst for you. Come each day to inundate with heavenly life this sad life of exile, to enrich it and to make shine in it a ray from the joys of our heavenly home.”

(From The Eucharistic Meditations of the Cure of Ars)
