St. Claude de la Colombiere on the "Holy Mass"


"God is more honoured by a single Mass than He could be by all the actions of angels and men together, however fervent and heroic they might be. Yet, how few hear Mass with the intention of giving God this sublime honour! How few think with joy on the glory a Mass gives to God. How few rejoice to possess the means of honouring Him as He deserves! . . . If we only knew the treasure we hold in our hands!
