I am so longing for Jesus in the Eucharist...That my Lord would disguise His glory so accessibly in simple bread and wine, yet completely captivate my heart and soul~~I am heartbroken that I cannot receive Him tomorrow morning as I had hoped.
This is a good time to share with you the prayer for spiritual communion, which you can make at any time or place and which brings many graces:
Lord Jesus, I believe that You are truly present in the Blessed Sacrament. I love You above all things and I long for You in my soul. Since I cannot now receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. As though You have already come, I embrace you and unite myself entirely to You. Never permit me to be separated from You.
Now, go find yourself a tabernacle and sit with Him for awhile. See you in a couple days.
That second paragraph is beautiful and expresses a depth of feeling very succinctly. I'm on my way to Mass this morning, and I will pray for your safety in travel.
