Excerpt

"Listen to what was revealed to our fathers : "They all took of the water from the holy rock which came after them: and the rock was Christ". (Paulus 1Co 10,King James version Bible) You have experienced fulfilment you have seen the full light, the prefigured truth, the body of the Creator rather than the manna from heaven ... What we eat and what we drink, the Holy Spirit expresses it elsewhere : "O Taste and see that the Lord is good. Blessed is the man that trust in him" (Ps 34,8- King James version Bible). According to St Ambrose (Aurelius Ambrosius a.340-397 Bishop of Milano ) , Treatise on Mysteries, 48-49, 58 (trad. SC 25 rev.). Reported in On the mysteries" and the treatise on the sacraments by an unknown author, translated by T Thompson, (London: SPCK, 1919) [translations of De sacramentis and De mysteriis; rev edn published 1950]

St. Augustine

O Thou Good Omnipotent, Who so carest for every one of us, as if Thou carest for him alone; and so for all, as if all were but one! Blessed is the man who loveth Thee, and his friend in Thee, and his enemy for Thee. For he only loses none dear to him, to whom all are dear in Him who cannot be lost. And who is that but our God, the God that made heaven and earth, and filleth them, even by filling them creating them. And Thy law is truth, and the truth is Thyself. I behold how some things pass away that others may replace them, but Thou dost never depart, O God, my Father supremely good, Beauty of all things beautiful. To Thee will I intrust whatsoever I have received from Thee, so shall I lose nothing. Thou madest me for Thyself, and my heart is restless until it reposes in Thee. Amen.
