A man who fails to love the Mass fails to love Christ. We must make an effort to "live" the Mass with calm and serenity, with devotion and affection. And this is why I have always suspected that those who want the Mass to be over with quickly show, with this insensitive attitude, that they have not yet realized what the sacrifice of the altar means.
-- St. Josemaría Escriva de Balaguer
AMEN AMEN!
ReplyDeleteI remember when we had a visiting Priest and the parishioners told him not to let his Homily last for more than 10 mins as the football replay would be on the TV!
The Priest was offended and Rightly so!
Great Quote Steve BRAVO!!
Peace of Christ to ALL
