Bring Your Troubles to Adoration

January 23, 2021

The mysteries of Jesus’ Passion are contained in the Eucharist, for it is a remembrance of His death. Holy Mass is a repetition of the Sacrifice of the Last Supper and the Sacrifice of the Cross. How often is the Eucharist also the renewal of His sufferings! The sacrileges, forgetfulness, and disrespect that He receives must would His Heart, which has always been on fire with love for men. He felt it all when He knelt in the garden of Gethsemane and when He hung on the Cross. His repose in the tabernacle reminds us of His rest in the sepulcher.

The glory of His risen life also is renewed in the Eucharist. He is present here in His glorious, transfigured body, just as He appeared after His Resurrection. He abides with us as He did with the Apostles. He makes Himself the friendly companion of our Pilgrimage, as he did to the travelers on their way to Emmaus. He watches us from the quiet tabernacle while we go on through life, comforting and encouraging, blessing our work, unsuccessful though it appears, as He blessed Peter’s fishing. (John 21:6).
