If God gives you an abundant harvest of trials, it is a sign of great holiness which He desires you to attain. Do you want to become a great saint? Ask God to send you many sufferings.

All the pleasures of the world are nothing compared with the sweetness found in the gall and vinegar offered to Jesus Christ. That is, hard and painful things endured for Jesus Christ and with Jesus Christ.

jesus blessed angel
The Blessed Sacrament is the magnet of souls. There is a mutual attraction between Jesus and the souls of men. Mary drew Him down from heaven. Our nature attracted Him rather than the nature of angels. Our misery caused Him to stoop to our lowness.

Our love makes earth a paradise to Him; and our souls lure Him as gold lures the miser, with irresistible fascination Frederick William Faber

Controversy simply repels... All the attraction of the Church is in Jesus, and His chief attraction is the Blessed Sacrament
