Saint Titus Brandsma describes the most thrilling moment of Saturday evening devotions in the Church of the Carmelites: the solemn chanting of the Salve Regina. "All now stand before the altar of Mary... above which the statue of Mary glimmers in the light."
In his canticles "For the Love of Jesus Christ", which were published in 1851, the Servant of God Hermann Cohen wrote a summary of his vocation in the dedication pages of the book, closing with a hymn of praise to Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament: "Throw yourselves at His Feet; give Him your heart, and He will bless you."
"Whoever is imbued with a lively faith in Christ present in the tabernacle, whoever knows that a friend awaits here constantly—always with the time, patience, and sympathy to listen to complaints, petitions, and problems—this person cannot remain desolate..."
It is a practice in honour of Mary, but the salutation to Jesus, the adoration of her divine Son
At the moment of Benediction, though I was not kneeling like the congregation, I felt something deep within me
I felt something deep within me as if I had found myself. It was like the prodigal son facing himself
For every Catholic there lies ready an immeasurable treasure: the proximity of the Lord in the holy sacrifice and in the most holy sacrament of the altar
"My child, the hour of my death has come."
I allow myself to recoup courage before the tabernacle
For me You remain in the most Blessed Sacrament
The refugees recited the Rosary together each evening
On St. Gregory Nazianzen's Day, May 9 they vowed not to leave
He is present to us in the Most Blessed Sacrament
"My child, the hour of my death has come."
She walked very quietly close to the wall
This contact, this union with Jesus is everything
The more intense this intimate life is, the more we will be Carmelites
The Lord gives us so much to do these days
The refugees assembled for the daily prayers in honour of the Blessed Virgin Mary

Let nothing disturb you, Let nothing frighten you, All things are passing away: God never changes. Patience obtains all things. Whoever has God lacks nothing; God alone suffices. ~ St. Teresa of Avila
