<strong>Prayer</strong>s fm Visits to <strong>the</strong> Blessed Sacramat 495<br />

There is no aspect of God's love for us which ought to<br />

affect our hearts more tenderly than <strong>the</strong> mere fact of His<br />

wishing to be loved by us; and <strong>the</strong>re is nu manifestation<br />

of that tenderness of <strong>the</strong> Sacred Heart more touching<br />

than <strong>the</strong> yearning to be remembered, expressed at many<br />

times and in many ways, but especially in <strong>the</strong> eucharistic<br />

Do this in commentoration of Me, which becomes at ihe<br />

altar even more simple and affecting, In hfei men~miam<br />

facietis -"In memory of Me." When such infinite<br />

and utterly incomprehensible love as this has Omnipotence<br />

for <strong>the</strong> instrument of its behests, how can any<br />

poor little creature of God -whose sole dignity is<br />

that he has a heart to love Him - how can he presume<br />

for one moment to discuss <strong>the</strong> limits of <strong>the</strong> possibilities<br />

of <strong>the</strong> divine condescension? - FR. RUSSELL, S. J.<br />

B Brazer for a Visit to tt]e BIessea Sacrament<br />

(Including all <strong>the</strong> Acts Recommended)<br />

Y Lord and my God, I firmly believe that Thou art<br />

really present in <strong>the</strong> sacred Host. I adore Thee<br />

beneath <strong>the</strong> sacramental veil which Thou hast mercifully<br />

chosen in order to approach us. Permit me,<br />

0 dearest Jesus, to render Thee my homage toge<strong>the</strong>r<br />

with <strong>the</strong> angels who surround Thy altar-throne. I<br />

believe that Thou dwellest on our altars not only to<br />

receive our humble adoration, but also to be <strong>the</strong> food<br />

of our souls, our sacrifice to <strong>the</strong> infinite majesty of <strong>the</strong><br />

heavenly Fa<strong>the</strong>r, our light in darkness, our counsel<br />

in doubt, our consolation in affliction, our strength<br />

in temptation, our friend in every need, our teacher in<br />

<strong>the</strong> school of perfection, our model in <strong>the</strong> way of<br />

sanctity.<br />
