The Intimacy of Touch

The intimacy of touch is so delicate that the greatest insult anyone can show us who knows us not is to make use of it. If our blessed Lord is to exhaust all of the intimacy of love, we must touch and be done. It was to touch the leper and to seek. Every single action of yours, your daily work, it makes no difference what you do. Sweeping in the street, teaching classes. Everything could be made a prayer. A blank check that has value only if the name of our Lord is signed to it. That is why I say false, whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it in the name of Christ.
