My Own Eucharistic Devotion
Jesus needs each one of us to be His hands and feet throughout this Eucharistic Revival, but first we must receive the grace He wishes to pour out upon us in His Eucharistic presence. We must come before Him often, seeking to quiet our hearts and minds, so that we might be attentive to His voice.
