O blessed Grotto, which had the good fortune to see the divine Word born within you! O blessed manger, which had the honor of receiving within you the Lord of heaven! O blessed straw, which served as a bed for Him whose throne is sustained by seraphim! Yes, you were blessed, O Grotto, O manger, O straw; but more blessed are the hearts that tenderly and fervently love this most lovable Lord, and who, ablaze with love, receive Him in Holy Communion. Oh, with what joy and satisfaction Jesus Christ will rest in the heart that loves Him!
