Eucharistic Reflection - God Is Thirsting for Our Love
God is love and He loves each of us more than anyone can. And what does He want from us? Love! When you love Him, you become like Him and you are united together as one!
When
you grow to love Jesus more, you will feel a very special and deep closeness
with Him and a growing awareness of His presence in your midst.
When
a soul feels His love, it will be overflowing with love, peace and joy. It will
be drunk on the love of God. Stay still with the Lord. Just as the baby falls
asleep in his mother's arms, fall asleep in the presence of the Lord.
Instead
of gossiping, bring Jesus all your worries and concerns. Tell Him, instead of
your friends! God is my best friend! He will never leave me or forsake me. He
loves me unconditionally!
In
the Sacrament of the Eucharist, You Lord have left us a memorial of Your
Passion. Help us, we beg You, to so reverence the Sacred Mysteries of Your Body
and Blood that we may constantly feel within our lives the effects of Your
redemption. You who love and reign forever!
“O Most Holy Trinity I adore you. My
God, my God I love You in the Most Blessed Sacrament!
Ponder
this Truth:
“The union between God and man in Holy
Communion is the one thing that terrifies hell.”—Pope Benedict XVI.
God
will shower you with the graces you need to get to heaven. God is thirsting for
our love!
Remember:
“The
Eucharist is the Sacrament of Love, it signifies love, it produces love.” —St.
Thomas Aquinas
Now go love Him as you ought and as He
deserves!
