Blessed Sacrament


Español

Trying to express his passionate love of the Blessed Sacrament, Saint Francis wrote in his "Letter to All the Friars", the following exhortation for his brothers:

Let the entire man be seized with fear; let the whole world tremble; let heaven exult when Christ, the Son of the Living God, is on the altar in the hands of the priest. O admirable height and stupendous condescension! O humble sublimity! O sublime humility! that the Lord of the universe, God and the Son of God, so humbles Himself that for our salvation he hides himself under a morsel of bread.
