Saint Peter Julian says…

All my graces have been graces of preparation; every state of my soul was a novitiate. The Blessed Sacrament has always dominated my life.

Dear friends, find God in the calm and peace of solitude. It is easier to find Him there. Enjoy God in His goodness to you and follow the path of His divine Providence which has so sweetly and powerfully led you to where you are now. Reflect diligently on our Lord in His divine Sacrament and you will be as happy as one can be this road to Heaven.

Go directly to God alone, without complaining that you no longer have a director close at hand. The more you advance, the less you will have. There comes a time when God wants us for Himself and He is enough for us. Live deeply within your soul in our Lord, because that is your real home and your real life.

I can do nothing well; even what little good I have done, I have done badly, most imperfectly. Such is my interior poverty. But how can I transform it into virtue? By approaching our Lord through this state of poverty, by making acts of it like a child that is week, poor, ignorant and yet happy, at peace with himself because his mother favours him…. but is not our Lord better than a mother? Is He not my dear Providence, my Light, my All?

The divine Rule of gracious providence makes us peaceful everywhere. We are like a child in its mother’s arms. So, let us truly be like children in God’s hands. Sometimes His grace carries us, then we travel joyfully. At other times, He only gives us His hand, then we must walk, but difficulties are nothing in Jesus’ company. He often lets us walk alone, in the mud, out in the desert. Then let’s call out to our Master. He was deliberately teaching us that we can do nothing by ourselves.

The essential thing is to strengthen our trust in God, feed upon His truth, dedicate ourselves to His glory as our sovereign love, love Him in everything, everywhere and above everything! Abide in God! Outside of God, we are like a poor street person or a traveller during a storm; but in God, however, we have a peaceful, gentle, holy and joyful dwelling place; we are at peace.

There is no other than Jesus, and for me Jesus eucharistic.

There is only one idea, but the scope is vast. The focus, however, is always eucharistic.
