“Praying is not asking God to bless our own intentions, however good they may be. Praying is asking God for a new way of looking at the world, at others, and at oneself, as well as the grace to live in conformity to the divine will.”
― Could You Not Watch with Me One Hour?: How to Cultivate a Deeper Relationship with the Lord through Eucharistic Adoration
― Could You Not Watch with Me One Hour?: How to Cultivate a Deeper Relationship with the Lord through Eucharistic Adoration
“Today, science tends to be written by experts for experts. A serious communication on a scientific subject assumes so much specialized knowledge on the part of the reader that it usually cannot be read at all by anyone not learned in the field. There are obvious advantages to this approach, not least that it serves to advance science more quickly. Experts talking to each other about their expertise can arrive very quickly at the frontiers of it -- they can see the problems at once and begin to try to solve them. But the cost is equally obvious. You -- the ordinary intelligent reader whom we are addressing in this book -- are left quite out of the picture.”

“By our adoration, we can love Jesus today, like the humble shepherds of Bethlehem, like the magi who brought their gifts, or like Mary of Bethany who poured very pure nard over the head of the Christ.”

“To want to meet God in us in a "heart-to-heart" without passing through the "face to face" of adoration requires a purification of the inner self and a solid formation without which prayer risks leading us back to ourselves and not to God present in us.”
