Prayer to Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament

DVRodriguez2021-05-01T22:17:44-04:00

From the sermon given on 18 April 2021 Jesus, my Lord and my God, I adore Thee present in the Sacrament of Thy love.

The same Who, from the summit of Mount Sinai, commanded the Israelites not to approach near Him, lest the terrors of His greatness should destroy them. Dearest Jesus, I believe most firmly that Thou, the second Person of the Most [...]
