When I Draw Near The Ciborium, All My Sighs Are Heard...

If I am despised by the world,
If it considers me as nothing,
A divine peace flood me.
For I have the Host as my support.
When I draw near the ciborium, All my sighs are heard...
To be nothing is my glory. I am the atom of Jesus...



“I am convinced that one should tell one's spiritual director if one has a great desire for Communion, for Our Lord does not come from Heaven every day to stay in a golden ciborium; He comes to find another heaven, the heaven of our soul in which He loves to dwell.”
