Doves and the Eucharist

Heavenly Nourishment

With this divine nourishment, go through life;
you carry within you the power of Jesus Christ.

In this divine nectar my heart is refreshed.

This feast is worth for it the pleasures of the world

This Precious Chalice

O My Savior give me wings like a dove,
and I will fly and take part in this precious Chalice

where one tastes a holy and delicious and intoxication

Each day I invoke Him and with paternal care
He nourishes me with gifts offered on His altar.

Letaille

The God of Angels is become man

so that man can be nourished by the Bread of Angels.

St, Augustine

When you participate in the Heavenly Banquet,

Implore for me of the Divine Bridegroom.

Lord, giver of all things, give to us our daily bread.

If I have not love, I am nothing. (St. Paul)

Bouasse Lebel

Living bread which came down from heaven

to give us life, have mercy upon us.

Bouasse Lebel

All who thirst, come to the Source

whose waters spring up from eternal life.

Bouasse Lebel, Paris #460

Bread of our Soul

Come, eat the bread prepared for you.

In the eastern rite the priest approaches the Altar of Sacrifice with the words, "Now is the time for God to act." These words remind the faithful that in the Liturgy the substance of bread and wine is changed by the action of the Spirit into the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ and that, as we receive the Energy of the Triune God in the Mystery of the Blessed Sacrament, it is the Sanctifier who acts to change our very being, restoring in us the Image of that which we receive.

I am the Bread of Life. Whoever comes to me will not hunger.

John 4:35

Source of Life, delicious beverage, you give immortality.

The treasure of the earth.

Turgis

Let us quench our thirst at the source of graces.

There, recollected and alone,

in the Heart of Jesus I lose myself.

Letaille

You want to give me to eat
the heavenly meat and the bread of angels
which is none other than yourself, O my God!

The Eucharist is the Life of the World.
Do not try to fight against the violence of the waves, rather retire to the quiet on the bank of our holy Eucharistic Shrine. Bonamy
