Spiritual Communions and Aspirations

[Therese]

Are we making frequent Spiritual Communions and aspirations throughout our day like we should be doing?  Making short Spiritual Communions is good and easy.  Here are a couple you can say:

Jesus, my Beloved, come into my heart!

Jesus, my Jesus, come to me!

[Shin]

Lord grant me to prepare and receive Holy Communion as perfectly as I may, and give thanks after.  Amen.

[Therese]

Lord, grant that when I am unable to get to the holy Sacrifice of the Mass that my Spiritual Communions can give me all the graces that I'd receive at the altar rail, or as many of them as possible.  

Jesus, my Jesus, I love you!  Come into my heart!

[Therese]

I had to edit my last post.

[Shin]

'Come, Thou, bread of angels and satisfy the cravings of my soul; come, Thou, glowing furnace of charity, and inflame my soul with the fires of divine love; come, Shepherd divine, and guide me; come, Eternal father, my hope, my life, my joy, and source of all my happiness; come, Thou dearest object of all my aspirations; come, Thou comforter of the sorrowful, light supernal of the soul; come, Thou, who art the solace and refreshment of the weary; come to me, O Thou, for whom the nations prayed, and for whom the patriarchs sighed! come to me, O Thou, the desired of ages, joy of angels, glory of the heavens, supreme delight of the saints! come to me, for I yearn for Thee; come to me, for Thou hast transpierced me with the arrows of Thy love; come, delay not, for my heart waxes faint, and I feel that I cannot exist without Thee; come, O Jesus, I beseech Thee, come.'

St. Leonard of Port Maurice

I pray that most beautiful prayer, or something very similar, in preparation for holy Mass, Shin.  God bless you!

[Shin]

I knew you would appreciate it!




'I love You, O my God'
by St. Jean-Marie Vianney

I love You, O my God, and my only desire is to love You until the last breath of my life. I love You, O my infinitely lovable God, and I would rather die loving You, than live without loving You. I love You, Lord and the only grace I ask is to love You eternally. . . My God, if my tongue cannot say in every moment that I love You, I want my heart to repeat it to You as often as I draw breath.'

Yes, Shin, I pray the exact same prayer of St. Leonard of Port Maurice.  I really love this prayer by Sr. Jean-Marie Vianney too.  Thanks for sharing it.  God bless you!
