Ecclesiastes 1:1-11; 2:1-11; 4:9-12; 5:10; 3:9-11; 9:11; 12:13
“... the very last thing I want to do is to unsettle in the mind of any Christian, whatever his denomination, the concepts—for him traditional— by which he finds it profitable to represent to himself what is happening when he receives the bread and wine. I could wish that no definitions had ever been felt to be necessary; and, still more, that none had been allowed to make divisions between churches.” –C.S. Lewis, Letters to Malcom: Chiefly on Prayer
“I hope I do not offend God by making my Communions in the frame of mind I have been describing. The command, after all, was Take, eat: not Take, understand.” –C.S. Lewis, Letters to Malcom: Chiefly on Prayer
“Go often to Holy Communion. Go very often! This is your one remedy.” –St. Therese of Lisieux, The Letters of St. Therese of Lisieux
