Devotimr to th Blessed Sacrament I 25<br />

to His blessed Mo<strong>the</strong>r. In your daily visits to Our<br />

Lord in <strong>the</strong> Eucharist, give expression to your devotion<br />

to our blessed Lady. You might say: "Our Lady of<br />

<strong>the</strong> most blessed Sacrament, pray for us."<br />

4. St. Joseph, thc fqter-fa<strong>the</strong>r of Our Lord, stands<br />

very dose to Jesus and Mary. How good and how<br />

great he must have been in <strong>the</strong> eyes of God, to have<br />

deserved <strong>the</strong> honor and <strong>the</strong> prerogative of being chosen<br />

as <strong>the</strong> foster-fa<strong>the</strong>r of Jesus and <strong>the</strong> guardian and protector<br />

of His blessed Mo<strong>the</strong>r! Honor him especially<br />

in your visits to Jesus, and say: "St. Joseph, pray for<br />

me, that like <strong>the</strong>e I may die in <strong>the</strong> arms of Jesus and<br />

Mary!" St. Joseph, having always watched with<br />

paternal solicitude over <strong>the</strong> interests of <strong>the</strong> Holy Family<br />

at Nazareth, must love <strong>the</strong> poor tabernacls where<br />

Jesus Christ dwells, and will protect those who work<br />

to render <strong>the</strong>m less unworthy of <strong>the</strong> divine Host.<br />

5. When possible, make your meditation in <strong>the</strong> church<br />

before <strong>the</strong> Blessed Sacrament. If you can not be present<br />

in <strong>the</strong> church, <strong>the</strong>n, at your exercises of devotion, turn<br />

toward <strong>the</strong> nearest tabernacle.<br />

6. Make frequent visits to <strong>the</strong> church where <strong>the</strong><br />

Blessed Sacrament is solemnly exposed. If Jesus delights<br />

to come out of <strong>the</strong> tabernacle to be surrounded<br />

with lights and flowers on His altar-throne, it is that<br />

He may be visited, adored, and loved by souls. Do not<br />

pass a church without going in, if only for a moment,<br />

to salute your Lord. If you can not enter, <strong>the</strong>n before<br />

<strong>the</strong> door, offer up a little prayer to Jesus: "<strong>My</strong> God<br />

and my all!" Greet Him in <strong>the</strong> sacrament of His love<br />

with some external sign of reverence. Give Him your<br />

heart: say that you love Him.<br />

7. Examine yourself every week as to your devotion<br />

to <strong>the</strong> Blessed Eucharist; whe<strong>the</strong>r you love Him more<br />
