BLESSED - (SAINT) JACINTA BY SISTER LUCIA OF FATIMA - Published on Oct 26, 2016
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v8pEWsXjhJM The First Memoir of Sister Lucia of Fatima. This memoir is about the character and events of Blessed Jacinta whose little body is in-corrupt. In what we learn about this little child of God, we understand better the words of Our Lord Jesus in Holy Scripture "Unless you become like one of these little children, you cannot enter the kingdom of Heaven". Jacinta teaches us how to offer God penance and sacrifices for the sake of sinners, in the most simplest forms. Her innocence is captivating. The love for poor sinners, envelopes our own hearts and encourages us to love souls and want to offer the sacrifices that she offered to God for their conversion. Jacinta is a true Saint and Martyr. A true gift from God.

“…In this world I cannot see the Most High Son of God with my own eyes, except for His Most Holy Body and Blood” (St. Francis of Assisi).

If the father of Origen used to kiss his child during the night and adore the Holy Spirit living within Him, can we doubt that Joseph must often have adored Jesus hidden in the pure tabernacle of Mary? How fervent that adoration must have been: My Lord and my God, behold your servant! No one can describe the adoration of this noble soul.

“The adoration of Jesus in the Most Blessed Sacrament is the end of the Church Militant, just as adoration of God in His glory is the end of the Church Triumphant.

“When the Sisters are exhausted, up to their eyes in work; when all seems to go awry, they spend an hour in prayer before the Blessed Sacrament. This practice has never failed to bear fruit: they experience peace and strength” (St. Teresa of Calcutta)
