A story for every day...
Saint Louis and the miraculous host.
During his reign, Jesus Christ sometimes showed himself in a host in the form of a little child. Thousands of curious people flocked to the church where this miracle occurred, but the holy king, to whom this prodigy was reported, did not move from his home. When asked the reason for his reserve, he replied: “God works this miracle, not for believers but for those who doubt. My eyes could mislead me, but not the word of the Savior. If I saw this miracle, I would close my eyes so as not to lose the merit of faith.”
– The faith of St. Louis was the unshakeable conviction of the truth of the words of Jesus Christ.
