Pondering Tidbits of Truth is my simple and inadequate way of providing nuggets of spiritual wisdom for you to chew on from time to time.
St. Margaret Mary
"The Divine Heart is an ocean full of all good things, wherein poor souls can cast all their needs; it is an ocean full of joy to drown all our sadness, an ocean of humility to drown our folly, an ocean of mercy to those in distress, an ocean of love in which to submerge our poverty."
(From The Heart of Prayer: The Essential Guide to Knowing God Through Prayer)
Laura Catherine Worchacz
“[Our Blessed Mother) Mary devoted herself exclusively to the Eucharistic glory of Jesus. She knew it was the desire of the Eternal Father to make the Eucharist known, loved and served by all men; that the need of Jesus’ heart was to communicate to all men His gift of grace and glory…She was consumed with the desire to make Jesus and the Blessed Sacrament known to all, to inflame all hearts with His love, to see them enchained to His loving service…Eucharistic adorers share Mary’s life of mission and prayer at the foot of the Most Blessed Sacrament…We are called to prepare ourselves to receive Communion as if it would be our first or our last time. We are called to be, as much as possible, at the throne of mercy before the Blessed Sacrament.”
(From Consecration to Jesus Through Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament)
St. Augustine
“Speaking of the character true conversion, St. Augustine says, “he is truly converted who turns to God with his whole heart, who not only fears punishment but earnestly desires to merit God’s graces and favors. Should anyone turn to God in this way, even at the end of his life, we would have no reason to despair of his salvation. But as examples of this perfect conversion are very rare, we cannot but tremble for one who defers his repentance until the hour of death.”

Guide by Venerable Louis of Granada, O.P.)
