It breaks through the shell of our self.

How simple it is! Let us look to Christ, let us focus solely on Him. Let us understand that with every thought, every word, every action – regardless of its kind – Christ does not come to us, but flows from us. He was already within us before and is sprouting like a seed that breaks through the shell of our own self.

(P. Albert Peyriguere /1883–1959/, correspondence, letter from January 2, 1936)
