Truly Present

The time after Holy Communion is the most intimate and valuable time we have with Jesus; it is like no other time even while Jesus is everywhere and in all things! It is during this time that if we are disposed to the full measure of grace, we are truly united with Jesus as is asked in a spiritual communion.

Jesus in the Tabernacle

The absence of a crucifix in our church brought me to Jesus, hidden in the bread and wine, waiting in the tabernacle for me to seek him out, to gaze on him, and to allow him to enrich my soul with deeper revelation that carried me along my journey. Having been given the grace to contemplate more fully the mystery of Jesus Incarnate transformed into glory, uniting us in his glorified body has deepened my love for Jesus, for the Eucharist, and for my fellow brothers and sisters in Christ! May we all arrive home to our Father’s house safely with great joy at knowing the unfathomable depths of his love and mercy!

Weeds are springing up everywhere. Jesus to clear some weeds away and found his way through the garden of my heart. I was a child, at his side, holding his hand, quite content... Be his child today. Take some time to invite him into your garden!
