Reflection: Let the children come to Me...

"Hidden Jesus, in You lies all my strength. From my most tender years, the Lord Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament has attracted me to Himself. Once, when I was seven years old, at a Vesper Service, conducted before the Lord Jesus in the monstrance, the love of God was imparted to me for the first time and filled my little heart; and the Lord gave me understanding of divine things. From that day until this, my love for the hidden God has been growing constantly to the point of closest intimacy. All the strength of my soul flows from the Blessed Sacrament. I spend all my free moments in conversation with Him. He is my Master."  Diary of Saint Faustina 1404

Saint Faustina wrote in her diary in November 1937 about her love for the Most Blessed Sacrament, which is the Lord Himself. How important it is to be with our Lord, even at a young age, listening and talking to Him. What graces we will receive.

You, too, will find peace and mercy if you spend time adoring our Lord in the silence and quiet of His Most Holy Presence. Parents and grandparents, take your children and grandchildren to visit Jesus in Eucharistic Adoration!

"Let the children come to Me; do not prevent them, for the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these. Amen I say to you, whoever does not accept the Kingdom of God like a child will not enter it." Then He embraced the children and blessed them, placing His hands on them. Mark 10:14-16

God's forgiveness and peace are available to us always. He calls us to trust Him completely like a child. There is no limit to our Heavenly Father's goodness, kindness and mercy. Come alone or come with a child and sit in the Presence of Jesus in Eucharistic Adoration.

Come away and rest awhile...Come with little children...Come yourself...Jesus is waiting for you...Come...
