“Jesus is not content with a “percentage of love”: we cannot love him twenty or fifty or sixty percent. It is either all or nothing.” - Pope Francis’ homily at the Canonization Mass

Pope’s Homily at Canonization of Paul VI, Oscar Romero & 5 Other Blesseds

‘Jesus gives all & asks all: he gives a love that is total & asks for an undivided heart.Even today he gives himself to us as the living bread; can we give him crumbs in exchange?’

October 10, 1948 - "I am coming to the conclusion that it is an advantage that our choir is so terrible, because since I have been forced to admit my absolute incapacity to do anything about it and have abandoned myself to God."
