Title: He Is In Our Midst This Very Day
After Communion
R. Do I realize how Jesus loves us? Do I realize how Jesus loves you? Do I think and ponder how Jesus loves me?
He is not far off, He is inside of me right now. He is truly present in His Divinity and Humanity, in the Eucharist, in the tabernacle. Do I realize that He is truly present to me in front of the tabernacle?
We are so fortunate to be in the presence of God. We are so fortunate to have Him in a special way within ourselves when we are in the state of grace. We are indeed blessed, to be in your presence, Lord. God dwells within us. Do I realize this presence? How can I not love you when I realize He dwells within your very soul?
Oh, my brother, I have so much to learn on this journey and how little I see! I am sorry for not seeing the God who created you, His special creation and He loves His creation!
I am sorry for not seeing the special creation of God the Father. I am created in such love by God the Father!
I am sorry for not realizing His special presence within me when I am in the state of grace. I am sorry for the moments lost when I did not recognize God's presence in my very own midst. Open my eyes, oh Spirit of God, to see You as You are present in me and my brothers. Help me to become more and more aware of Your existence surrounding me and within me. God is truly in our midst this very day. Jesus is in His humanity and divinity in the Holy Eucharist. What words can we say but that He, God, is alive in us!
My personal journey to greater union with Him depends on my pondering how He loves me personally. The more I realize how He loves me, the more I realize how He loves you. I am one in Him. You are one in Him. How can I not love you if you are this close to Him?
To love you, my brothers, I must busy myself about developing my personal love affair with God. The more I love Him, the more I love you. You are His creation, His child, His precious one, His beloved. I must see myself as His creation, His child, His precious one, His beloved.
I must ponder this love poured out for me. This is the key to my loving. God first loved us and sent His only Son that we might have life. From His love given to me, I can love Him and you, but I must first realize and know His love. He first loved us! Open my heart, Lord, to know Your love for me so I can love You and others as You call me to.
Mary, guide me to know the love of your Son. Spirit open my heart. Father, help me to see the love You pour out to me. Jesus, Jesus, my precious love, open my heart to the immense love of God and let me feel this love poured out in such abundance so I can love You more fully and love my brothers as You want me to.
Jesus: Open your heart to the love I pour out to you every day in the Eucharist. I come to you, Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity. I give you, My child, Myself. This is love: to lay down your life for your friend. I give Myself to you this day in the Eucharist, in My Divinity and Humanity. I enter your heart. My child, My child, ponder this love that God comes to you, a mere mortal, because He loves you so much. This is the secret to your life, to ever ponder the love of God and His presence with you this very day.
R. He is truly here. He is in our midst. He ardently loves us with a burning fire. He loves me personally. He loves you personally.
This is the "Good News". Shout it from the housetops, raise the roof: Jesus is Lord and He Is With Us This Very Day with an unabiding Love, given for me, given for you!
Mary is my most loving mother and she is ever by my side. I love You, Jesus and Mary. I love You Father and Holy Spirit. This is the Good news! Jesus Has Died and Has Risen to New Life and we are sharers in this New Life!
Come one, come all to the altar of the Lord. Praise, Honor and Worship for God is truly present and He is worthy of all Honor and Praise.
Alleluia, Praise the Lord, Alleluia. Praise Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Love to our most wonderful Mother. We are the chosen ones. God has visited His people and is in our midst this very day!
Do I think God really does love me?
Jesus loves me so, He died for me, He gave His Blood for me!
He dwells within me. I am a temple of the Holy Spirit.
How do I treat this temple? Do I treat it with such honor because God is present there?
I am the creation of the Father. He loves me. He loves what He creates.
Do I realize He loved me first. God loved me before I was born! He sent His only Son to save me from my sins so I can be with Him forever in heaven.
Our Father Who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.
I consecrate myself to Your most Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart of Mary, in total surrender to be the creation You want me to be.
Thy Will Be Done...
Father, my Father, You who dwell within my breast, I am Yours. God, take me, mold me into the image of Jesus, Your Son.

Psalm 91: 1-2, 14-16
You who live in the secret place of Elyon,
spend your nights in the shelter of Shaddai,
saying to Yahweh, ‘My refuge, my fortress,
my God in whom I trust!’‘Since he clings to me I rescue him,
I raise him high, since he acknowledges my name.
He calls to me and I answer him:
in distress I am at his side,
I rescue him and bring him honour.
I shall satisfy him with long life,
and grant him to see my salvation.’
Christ has risen to bring us new life!
Song: Night Is Over
Song: New Life
The Lady is Calling, She is Calling us Now.
Note: I was filled up with such sorrow and crying, unexplained, all the way home from church.
This is a fact, Christ is truly present and in our midst this very day.
Souls will be lost. We are being called to spread His love. We are being called by Our Lady.
What is more important? (I was filled up with such intense sorrow could hardly drive.)
This is reality. All this about Jesus, God and Mary is real. His life and death were real. The Mass is real. He is truly present in the Eucharist and the tabernacle. This is reality. This is true today. [The tears were as always, unexplained after Communion, sitting before the tabernacle as I experience such sadness for the blindness of men to not even know Him. She is calling us now! Mary allows me to experience her sadness.
(Before the tabernacle I had a vision of Our Lady holding Jesus' body after He was taken down from the cross.
On the bus when I was in Medugorje, a priest recited the sorrowful mysteries of the rosary..on Mt. Krucivec (Medugorje) - nails in Jesus' hands..also the priest did the stations of the cross, he also talked about Mary and how she suffered.) I have experiences, deep crying, experiencing the sufferings of Jesus and Mary. The veil is lifted and I am so close to the other side. I experience such joy to be so close to Them.]
Mary held the lifeless body of Jesus under the cross. We have Christ inside of our body when we receive the Eucharist. He is no less present in us than He was in Mary's womb.
Jesus: I come to you in such a special way and many do not even know what a treasure they possess. This is My Body you receive. This is My Blood you receive. I come inside of you to be so closely united to you.
Do you see the love I want to share with you. I give you the sacrament of My greatest love. I come to dwell, Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity, within your very breast!
I am love. I give My love to you in this most sacred mystery. I am so full of love for you, My sweet ones.
R. Mary held the Son of God within her body. She felt His life within her body and she knew that life was God's own Son. The baby she carried would save the whole world. Jesus is a Divine Person with two natures - a human nature and a Divine nature. Jesus was a little baby formed in the womb of His sweet Mother Mary.
What an honor for Mary that the child Jesus was formed in her body. Mary was so joined to Jesus from His beginning of life on earth. He was formed from her body. Mary was there at His death and received His lifeless body, taken down from the cross. As she delivered His tender body at birth, she held His battered, bruised body after His death on the cross. Such anguish for her tender heart - this is her beloved Son, the Lord Jesus Christ!
