 General Description:

 

"A more intelligent apprehension of the Blessed Sacrament will lead to a more intense love of it." And what insights Father Faber renders! He affirms that the Blessed Sacrament is "the very life of the Church," that it is "the Queen of the Sacraments," and that "it surpasses them all, in that it comprises the special excellencies of all the rest." He calls it "the compendium of all miracles," "the central theme and aspect of our religion," "the universal devotion of the Church," "a picture of God," "the Magnet of Souls," "God's greatest work," and "the crown of all His works."

Moreover, he claims that "devotion to the Blessed Sacrament is simply divine worship" and that "nothing teaches us humility so much as the Blessed Sacrament." He speaks also of spiritual communion, of Saints who did not eat except for Holy Communion, and of many, many other aspects of this glorious devotion, of which he seems at a loss to be able to express sufficiently in words the grand insights into this Marvelous Mystery that he possesses-save to pro-claim that "it seems to embrace the whole Church and make itself coextensive with all the wants of redeemed but exiled humanity."
