hidden within us,
ever since we received baptismal grace,
it grows ever richer
at Your sacramental table.”
St Ephrem (306-373)
Father and Doctor of the Church
“Love Him, then, keep Him as a friend.
He will not leave you as others do,
or let you suffer lasting death.
Sometime, whether you will or not,
you will have to part with everything.
Cling, therefore, to Jesus in life and death,
trust yourself to the glory of Him,
Who alone can help you
when all others fail.“
Thomas à Kempis (1380-1471)
“This death … has already levelled
his bow to strike me.
Is it not prudent to prevent its stroke,
by dying now to the world,
that at my death,
I may live to God?”
St Francis Borgia (1510-1572)
