“There is in every house a place where the provisions of the family are kept: the storeroom. The
church is the house of souls. This house belongs to us who are Christians. Well, in this house there
is a storeroom. Do you see this tabernacle? If one asks Christian souls, what is that? Your souls
answer: “it is the storeroom. It is there that the Body and Blood of Jesus is, and this good Savior
says to us: ‘Take and eat . . . take and drink’.” A mortal man, a creature, feeds himself, satiates himself with his God, making of Him his daily food and drink! O miracle of miracles! O love beyond all love! O happiness beyond all happiness! I thank you, O my God, and I ask of you the grace to hunger always for this heavenly food.”

(St. John Marie Vianney from The Eucharistic Meditations of the Cure de Ars)
