“Mary set out and traveled to the hill country in haste to a town of Judah … When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the infant leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth, filled with the Holy Spirit, cried out in a loud voice and said, ‘Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb. And how does this happen to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me? …’ … Mary said: ‘”My soul proclaims the Greatness of the Lord; my spirit rejoices in God my Savior …’ …”

“‘Amen, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will not enter the Kingdom of heaven. Whoever becomes humble like this child is the greatest in the Kingdom of heaven. And whoever receives one child such as this in my name receives me. … [T]heir angels in heaven always look upon the Face of My Heavenly Father. … If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them goes astray, will he not leave the ninety-nine in the hills and go in search of the stray? …'”
“… Jesus said to [His Disciples], ‘The Son of Man is to be handed over to men, and they will kill Him, and He will be Raised on the third day.’ … When they came to Capernaum, the collectors of the temple tax approached Peter and said, ‘Does not your teacher pay the temple tax?’ * * * Jesus said to him, ‘… go to the sea, drop in a hook, and take the first fish that comes up.

“… ‘Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever believes has Eternal Life. I AM the Bread of Life. Your ancestors ate the manna in the desert, but they died; this is the Bread that comes down from Heaven so that one may eat It and not die.

“… ‘Amen, amen, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains just a grain of wheat; but if it dies, it produces much fruit. Whoever loves his life loses it, and whoever hates his life in this world will preserve it for Eternal Life. Whoever serves me must follow Me, and where I AM, there also will My servant be. The Father will honor whoever serves Me.'”

“… ‘Do not work for food that perishes but for the Food that Endures for Eternal Llife, which the Son of Man will give you. …’ … ‘I am the Bread of Life; whoever comes to Me will never hunger, and whoever believes in Me will never thirst.'”
