The Youth Will Sing His Love For Christ

"The child will put its love for Jesus in a kiss, a smile sent to the tabernacle, a caress for the Infant Jesus, an expression of sadness before the crucifix. The youth will sing his love for Christ and will encourage its growthh by using expressions and images that strike his imagination and his senses, while waiting until his intellect can provide strong thoughts to form a more spiritual and more nourishing prayer."
