"There are prayerful steps we can take, in the silence of Eucharistic
adoration, to hear the Lord’s voice. We can begin by thanking God for His
presence, and by asking Him to help us to know Him, and to love him. We can
acknowledge our distractions, and ask the Lord to give us the gift of silence.
And, through Scripture, or the mysteries of the rosary, through some other
spiritual practice or reading, or through simple contemplation of God’s
goodness, we can begin to hear the Lord’s voice. We can share our hearts with
the Lord, and ask him to fill our minds, our imaginations, and our hearts with His presence.

God speaks to us when He is present before us in the Eucharist. We need only
learn His language: we need only dare to kneel humbly before the Lord and, with
trust in God, begin a dialogue of silence—intimate, powerful, and real."
