It is not necessary to be always in church to be with God, we can make a private chapel of our heart where we can retire from time to time to commune with Him, peacefully, humbly, lovingly; everyone is capable of these intimate conversations with God, some more, others less; He knows what we can do. Let us begin – perhaps He is only waiting for a single generous resolution from us.

Let's love Jesus who has loved us so much. With this thought let's come frequently before His tabernacle each day. He is always looking at us and desiring that we love Him. He lives there more poorly than He did when in Bethlehem, more helpless than when He was a child. He can do nothing for Himself, and yet He is Life itself.

If the greatest sinner on earth should repent at the moment of death, and draw his last breath in an act of love, neither the many graces he had abused, nor the many sins he had committed, would stand in his way. Our Lord would see nothing, count nothing, but the sinner's last prayer, and without delay He would receive him into the arms of His mercy. But to make Him thus blind and incapable of reckoning the number of our sins, we must approach Him through His Heart - on that side He is defenseless.

— St. Thérèse of Lisieux
