Eucharistic Reflection - He and I
" Here - all alone, He and I — He, with all His greatness, and I with all my miseries — He, all fire; and I, burning in the midst of His Divine Passion!...My darkness is lost in the midst of His light...and my icy heart melts inside of His. Here my sins are forgiven and my sorrows — O! my sorrows are united to His own, giving them value...How many treasures are enclosed in this holy place, consecrated through the presence of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament! Heaven is here, because He is here! I would not exchange these four walls for the most glorious palace on earth! You can feel Him, yes... here the Lord can be felt...here He can be found...here the soul loses itself in His arms. It cries out contritely, is anxious to suffer, and loves Him!" ( Holy Hours - Concepcion Carbrera de Armida)
