Quote/s of the Day – 30 July – “Golden Words,” St Peter Chrysologus

Quote/s of the Day – 30 July – “Month of the Most Precious Blood”– The Memorial of St Peter Chrysologus (c 400-450) “Golden Words,” Father & Doctor of the Church

“The Magi are filled with awe by what they see –
heaven on earth and earth in heaven;
man in God and God in man;
they see enclosed in a tiny body
the One Whom the entire world cannot contain.”

“He is The Bread sown in the virgin,
leavened in the Flesh,
moulded in His Passion,
baked in the furnace of the Sepulchre,
placed in the Churches
and set upon the Altars,
which daily supplies Heavenly Food to the faithful.”

“For he who touches
the Body of Christ unworthily,
receives his damnation.”

“The poor stretch out the hand
but God receives what is offered.”

St Peter Chrysologus (c 400-450)
“Golden Words”
Father & Doctor of the Church
