1E6 what d4ars Is or "0 Sacrament host holy, 0 Sacrament divine; AU praise and all thank.rgiuiq be every nwmnt Thine/" If you have time (perhaps you can "make time") step in and visit Our Lord for a few moments. You are busy, -yes; but remember, there is but one reel business in life, but "one thing necessary." Keep .that in mind all the time. Save your soul ! "Seek ye first the Kingdom of God, and all these things shall be added unto you" (Matt. vi. 33). Your business will not suffer if you spend a few moments with your best Friend - the same who will one day be your Judge. Keep Him as your Friend. And if you think of Him and His interests, He will think of you and prosper your affairs. At the hour of luncheon - at midday - it would be worth while to go out of your way to visit the Blessed Sacrament, to have a few moments' conversation with the divine Lover of souls, who abides with us "all days" for our good. It would refresh you, soul and body; it would certainly make you feel better; it would help y3u to forget your disappointments, and to take up your burden again with a light heart. Our Lord did not say in vain: "Come to Me all you that labor and are burdened, and I will refresh you" (Matt. xi. 28). n ON-CATHOLICS who are present at Mass, not understanding the ceremony, wonder why we should be so diligent in assisting at it. To them the idea of church and public worship is associated with preaching and hymn singing. They are surprised at a function in which a clergyman takes no notice of the people and at which often there is no sermon. Private Use Only
What, then, is the Mass that so attracts Cathblics and attendance at which is made obligatory on them, at least once a week, under pain of deadly sin? The Mass is the Last Supper over agdin. In it the priest takes bread and wine, and pronounces over them the sacred words of consecration used by the Lord in the upper chamber wherein He instituted the Eucharist and where first the elements were changed into liis body and blood. So the memory of that supper and of the sacrament that was then instituted is perpetuated. But the Mass is more than the Last Supper. It is the Sacrifice of Calvary all over again. In it Jesus Christ is really and personally offered to the eternal Godhead for the Almighty's honor and glory, in thanksgiving for all His benefits and blessings, in satisfaction for the sins of mankind, and in supplication for the spiritual and temporal needs of His people. He is there on the altar and He is sacrificed. He is offered up to the Father tu He was offered upon Golgotha, only that now the oblation is unbloody. But the same victim is presented, the same sacrifice takes place. - Anon. 66. -Benebfctfon of tbe Bleeeeb Sacrament "s I U~PER the little children to come unto Me, and forbid them not" (Mark x. 14). Thus spoke Our Lord when He blessed the little ones who flocked around Him and whom the disciples tried to keep back, because they feared that th6r Master would be fatigued.
