More quotes by Peter Julian Eymard

Image
The glory of His Father which our Lord sought above all else on earth is still the object of all His desires in the Blessed Sacrament. It is safe to say that Jesus Christ has clothed Himself with the sacramental state in order to continue honoring and glorifying His Father.

Image
O Mary! teach us the life of adoration! Teach us to see, as thou didst, all the mysteries and all the graces in the Eucharist to live over again the Gospel story and to read it in the light of the Eucharistic Life of Jesus. Remember, O our Lady of the Most Blessed Sacrament, that thou art the Mother of all adorers of the Holy Eucharist
Peter Julian Eymard
Image
The state of grace is nothing other than purity, and it gives heaven to those who clothe themselves in it. Holiness, therefore, is simply the state of grace purified, illuminated, beautified by the most perfect purity, exempt not only from mortal sin but also from the smallest faults purity will make saints of you! Everything lies in this!
Peter Julian Eymard
Image
The Eucharist is the supreme proof of the love of Jesus. After this, there is nothing more but Heaven itself
Peter Julian Eymard
Image
Be the apostle of the divine Eucharist, like a flame which enlightens and warms, like the Angel of his heart who will go to proclaim him to those who don't know him and will encourage those who love him and are suffering.
Peter Julian Eymard
Image
In one day the Eucharist will make you produce more for the glory of God than a whole lifetime without it.
Peter Julian Eymard
Image
Is not our Lord as meek and humble in the Blessed Sacrament as He was during His life on earth? Is He not always the Good Shepherd, the Divine Consoler, the Changeless Friend? Happy the soul that knows how to find Jesus in the Holy Eucharist, and in the Eucharist all things!

Communion is as necessary for us to sustain our Christian vitality, as the vision of God is necessary to the angels, to maintain their life of glory.
Peter Julian Eymard
Image
Love cannot triumph unless it becomes the one passion of our life. Without such passion we may produce isolated acts of love but our life is not really won over or consecrated to an ideal. Until we have a passionate love for our Lord in the Most Blessed Sacrament we shall accomplish nothing
Peter Julian Eymard
Image
Eucharistic adoration is the greatest of actions. To adore is to share the life of Mary on earth when she adored the Word Incarnate in her virginal womb, when she adored Him in the Crib, on Calvary, in the divine Eucharist
Peter Julian Eymard
Image
Jesus has prepared not just one Host, but one for everyday of our life. The Hosts for us are ready. Let us not forfeit even one of them
Peter Julian Eymard
Image
The Lord 'hath set His tabernacle in the sun,' says the Psalmist. The sun is Mary's heart.

Happy is the soul that knows how to find Jesus in the Eucharist, and the Eucharist in all things!

He loved us personally...centuries before we were born.

Image
The Eucharist completes the restoration begun in the Crib. Make merry therefore on this beautiful day, on which the sun of the Eucharist is rising. Let your gratitude never separate the Crib from the Altar, the Word made flesh from the God-Man made Bread of Life in the Most Blessed Sacrament
Peter Julian Eymard
Image
If we did not have the adorable Eucharist here below, Jesus our God-with-us, this earth would be much too sad, this life too hard, and time too long. We must be grateful to the divine goodness for having left us this hidden Jesus, this pillar of cloud and fire in this desert
Peter Julian Eymard
Image
Keep your soul at peace, in order to be able to be attentive and very faithful to the inner movement of the Holy Spirit.

Image
The Eucharist began at Bethlehem in Mary's arms. It was she who brought to humanity the Bread for which it was famishing, and which alone can nourish it. She it was who took care of that Bread for us. It was she who nourished the Lamb whose life-giving Flesh we feed upon
Peter Julian Eymard
Image
The Holy Eucharist is like a divine Storehouse filled with every virtue God has placed It in the world so that everyone one may draw from It.
Peter Julian Eymard
Image
The Holy Eucharist is a need of the heart of Christ, just as it is a need of our hearts. Sanctify and dedicate yourselves in all things in the spirit of love which prompted Our Lord to institute the Holy Eucharist, wherein He perpetuates the gift of His love to the glory of the Father.
