An Easy Way to Become a Saint - August 28

Continued from yesterday...

Chapter 6. After His Ascension

My Lord and My God

Oh! how we all should like to speak to the good God, the God of peace and love, the God of infinite mercy and compassion!

We should like to speak to Him, as Peter and James and John did. We should like to gaze on Him, as did the multitudes who thronged around Him in Judea, who looked into His face, who heard the wondrous words of love that fell from His lips and sank into their hearts like a heavenly balsam.

Wonder of wonders, all this we can do if only we have a living, understanding, undoubting faith in the Blessed Sacrament.

Jesus is on the Altar as really and truly as He is in Heaven, as really and truly as He was on Earth, the self-same God of infinite mercy and love. He is waiting for us, for you and for me. Let us go in and kneel at His feet and speak to Him in the Tabernacle.
