From the sermon Twelve Lights of Epiphany given on January 6, 2017 O most sweet and amiable Infant Jesus, though I see Thee in this cavern lying on straw poor and despised, yet faith teaches me that Thou art my God, who camest down from Heaven for my salvation.  I acknowledge Thee, then, for my sovereign Lord and Savior; but I have nothing, alas! to offer Thee.  I have no gold of love, because I have loved creatures instead of Thee.  I have not the incense of prayer, because I have lived in a miserable state of forgetfulness of Thee.  I [...]

From the sermon given on Gaudete Sunday in 2014 Almighty and ever-living God, let all the assembly of Christ’s faithful ones laud the graces that are near, and sing their highest praises to Thee, our Creator.

Born of a Mother in time, but begotten [...]
