A Moment with Our Lord

 
I adore thee O Jesus, God of love, truly present in the most Holy Eucharist.
I adore thee who has come to thy own but was not received by them.
I adore thee whom the majority of mankind reject and despise.
I adore thee whom the impious incessantly offend by their sacrilege and blasphemies.
I adore thee who are grieved by the coldness and indifference even of a vast number of Christians.
I adore thee O infinite goodness who has wrought so many miracles in order to reveal thy love for us.
I adore thee with all the angels and Saints and with those chosen souls that are now all ready, the blessed of thy Father and are all aglow with burning love for thee.
I adore thee with all thy friends oh Jesus, with them I prostrate myself at the foot of the altar to offer thee my most profound homage, to receive thy Divine inspirations and to implore thy grace. Oh how good it is for me to be here with thee- how sweet to hear the voice of my beloved. O victim of Divine love a piercing cry breaks forth as once it did on Calvary. It is the cry of love. I thirst; thy call is to thy children; I thirst for your love. Come all you who I love as the Father has loved me. Come and quench the thirst that consumes me.
Lord Jesus, behold I come. My heart is small but it is all thine, thou art a prisoner in our Tabernacle, thou the Lord of lords and love it is that holds thee here as such thou leavest the tabernacle only to come to us, to unite thyself with the faithful soul and allow thy Divine love to reign in her.
O king of love come, live, reign in me, I want no other law, but the law of thy love. No no, I henceforth desire to know not neither of the world nor what is in it nor of myself, thy love alone shall rule in me eternally. O Jesus, grant me this grace. Break my fetters strip me of all that is not thyself in order that thy love may be my life here below and my happiness and delight in eternity.
Amen.
