Mercy Minutes with Jesus (from Saint Faustina’s Diary)

May 20 ~ Jesus with Me

Theme:  Eucharist

“When I was about to receive Holy Communion, a second Host fell onto the priest’s sleeve, and I did not know which Host I was to receive. After I had hesitated for a moment the priest made an impatient gesture with his hand to tell me I should receive the Host. When I took the Host he gave me, the other one fell into my hands. The priest went along the altar rail to distribute Communion, and I held the Lord Jesus in my hands all that time.

“When the priest approached me again, I raised the Host for him to put it back into the chalice…while I was holding the Host in my hand, I felt such a power of love that for the rest of the day I could neither eat nor come to my senses. I heard these words from the Host: ‘I desired to rest in your hands, not only in your heart.’ And at that moment I saw the little Jesus. But when the priest approached, I saw once again only the Host.” (Mercy Minutes with Jesus/Diary, 160)

“One morning after Holy Communion, I heard this voice, ‘I desire that you accompany Me when I go to the sick.’” (Mercy Minutes with Jesus/Diary, 183)

My prayer response:

Thank You, Jesus, for Your desire to come into my heart in Holy Communion. Increase my desire for You that I may receive You with more fervor. I also pray that the sick would be strengthened by receiving You in Holy Communion. (Mercy Minutes with Jesus)
