Daily Virtue Quote – Ven. Fulton Sheen

“What does the Gospel mean when it says, describing the Risen Lord’s appearance at Emmaus, ‘He gave the impression that He was going on farther; but they urged Him to stay with them’? It means Our Lord passes us by each day in every opportunity to do good. If we neglect the opportunity, He does not reveal Himself… He leaves us in darkness if we ask not for Light. Never does He act independently of our desires for intimate union with Him. He breaks down no doors; the latch is on our side. He stands without the door and knocks.”
