List of points

Jesus is your friend. The Friend. With a human heart, like yours. With loving eyes that wept for Lazarus.

And he loves you as much as he loved Lazarus.

In Christ we have every ideal: for he is King, he is Love, he is God.

Consider what is most beautiful and most noble on earth, what pleases the mind and the other faculties, and what delights the flesh and the senses.

And the world, and the other worlds that shine in the night: the whole universe. Well this, along with all the follies of the heart satisfied, is worth nothing, is nothing and less than nothing compared… with this God of mine! — of yours! Infinite treasure, pearl of great price, humbled, become a slave, reduced to the form of a servant in the stable where he chose to be born, in Joseph's workshop, in his passion and in his ignominious death… and in the madness of Love which is the blessed Eucharist.

If a man had died to save me from death!… God died, And I remain indifferent.

When you approach the Tabernacle remember that he has been awaiting you for twenty centuries.

There he is: King of Kings, and Lord of Lords, hidden in the Bread.

To this extreme has he humbled himself through love for you.

Through the world still echoes that divine cry: 'I have come to bring fire to the earth, and how I wish it were blazing already!' And you see: it has nearly all died out…

Will you not help to spread the blaze?
