Luke 1:39 - Bl Columba Marmion

Hi, William,

Thank you.
The quotation was from the Daily "Walk With Me".
You carry it forward with a greater reach to Bl. Columba Marmion.
Greetings for the eve of the Eve of Christmas.

 Luke 1:39 - Bl Columba Marmion
Dear Father Donald,
 
Your beautiful quote from Bl. Columba Marmion set me off reading again his conferences, "Christ in His Mysteries", and even within his preliiminary conferences I came upon a 'complimentary' quote to the one you placed on your Blog:
 
"A deep knowledge of the mysteries of Jesus, the only true God with His Father and their common Spirit, is for us a never failing source of joy. Joy is the sentiment that is born in a soul, conscious of the good it possesses. The good of our intelligence is truth; the more this truth is abundant and luminous, the deeper is our inward joy".
 
Why when it is said that we accumulate knowledge am I not able to access it more readily - it is like an archaelogical dig rediscovering all that I have read and learnt! Thank you for taking me back to an invaluable foundation source.
.. in Our Lord,
William
