“How must we draw inspiration from Our Lord, and how obey Him in all that we do? By recalling His Presence in the Blessed Sacrament and by praying for His guidance. Do not go to seek Our Lord in heaven, for He is nearer to you than that. It is well; doubtless, to rise toward His glorious throne from time to time, and to desire to see His splendor, but in practical life, you should have Him nearer to you, and it is in the Most Blessed Sacrament that you should seek and find Him. Our Lord might say to you: ‘Why do you neglect My Presence here? Do you think it is of no importance and that you can do without it? In heaven I am the God of glory for the elect; in My Sacrament I am the God of grace for them that struggle.’ In all your actions, then, draw your inspiration from His Eucharistic Presence.” -St. Peter Julian Eymard
