"Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament flows from the sacrifice of the Mass and serves to deepen our hunger for Communion with Christ and the rest of the Church."

"Sometimes God gives us miracles like these to help strengthen our faith in his promises. When he walked among us, Jesus said that he would give us his flesh to eat and his blood to drink. What’s more, he promised that those who ate his flesh and drank his blood would have eternal life. So these miracles, and others like them, exist to spur us on and to help convince us that the Eucharist really is Jesus feeding us and helping us to live holy and pleasing lives. It really is Jesus strengthening us and renewing us in his love, his joy, and his peace. It really is Jesus empowering us to bear fruit for him."

"In the silence of the adoration chapel, I heard the Lord's message loud and clear: When problems come into your life, it is not because God is forsaking or forgetting you. It is because he wants to share with you his most precious treasure, his cross.
I learned that the time to follow Jesus is when everything is difficult—in the face of apparent failure, in loneliness and sorrow, in times when your decisions are misunderstood and your motives questioned. I also learned that where there is sacrifice, there is love, and where there is love, the Lord is there. His blessing lies hidden in every cross."
