No comments on Burning and Tender

At St Augustine Church in Manchester, EnglandIn the night of humility into which God asks us to enter, we can encounter the burning power of his Love. And how much more profoundly is his tenderness that pushes himself to give himself to us in the Eucharist. Each time it is like an embrace that pulls us to his heart, at one at the the same time crucified and glorified.
Charles Cardinal Journet (1891–1975)
