Source of charity is grace

Saint Gianna Beretta Molla to her Youth of Catholic Action, 1946

«The source of charity is grace, and the more grace lives in us, the more our charity increases. Grace is for charity as fire is for warmth. The more the fire is lit, the greater the heat that emanates from it. Thus the degree of charity depends on the amount of grace of the soul. And the quantity of grace of the soul depends on the sacraments and above all on the sacrament of the Eucharist, the sacrament of love par excellence. The Eucharist unites men to God and in this union the soul receives from Him the fire of love.
Behold, dear members, the secret, the true source of charity! Jesus the Eucharist".
