The words of Jesus

Jesus speaks to the heart of the one who has just received Communion and tells him:

What good is it for a man to gain the whole world if he goes to hell?

Learn from Me, who am humble and meek of Heart.

Blessed are those whose hearts are clean from sin, for they will see God.

Be  attentive and pray, so that you do not fall into temptation.

I have power in Heaven and on earth. Trust me. I have overcome the world.

I am the good shepherd, and you are my sheep. Listen to my words.

If you ask me for something, I will grant it to you, if it suits your soul.

I have come into the world, so that those who believe in Me do not walk in darkness.

Glory to the Father, to the Son and to the Holy Spirit: to a God in Three Persons I bless and sing.

I adore you devote

I adore you with passion, hidden deity,

that you are under these hidden forms;

to you my heart surrenders whole,

and everything faints if he looks at you.

The sight, the touch, the taste are deceived in you.

But your word is surrendered faith;

what Jesus has said, I believe;

for there is no truth like divine truth.

On the Cross the deity was hidden.

here humanity is hidden;

and both believing and confessing,

I ask what the repentant thief asked for.

I do not see, as Thomas saw, your wounds,

but for his God my soul praises you:

always do, Lord, that I believe in you,

that I wait for you, that I love you without measure.

O memorial of the passion of Christ,

oh living bread that you give life to humanity:

allow my soul to live from you,

and enjoy your celic delights.

Jesus Amado, pious pelican,

wash my impure chest with your blood,

that of such blood a droplet can

save everyone from their malice.

My Jesus, whom I now see hidden,

fulfill, Lord, what my chest desires:

that with an uncovered face contemplating you,

forever enjoy your clear view. Amen.

stay sir with me

Stay, Lord, with me, I need you present so as not to forget you, because you know how often I abandon you.

Stay, Lord, with me, I am very weak and I need your strength not to fall into temptation.

Stay, Lord, with me, you are my life, without you I often fall in fervor.

Stay, Lord, with me, you are my light, without you I am in darkness.

Stay, Lord, with me, let me hear your voice and pursue it.

Stay, Lord, with me, show me your will.

Stay, Lord, with me, I want to love you very much, live in your company always.

Stay, Lord, with me, my whole being is consecrated to you, you belong to me.

Stay, Lord, make my heart a prison of your love from which you never walk away.

Stay, Lord, with me, I want to be faithful to you always. 

Stay, Lord, with me, because although my soul is very poor, I want it to be for you a place of comfort, a closed orchard, a nest of love.

Stay, Lord, with me, make your love fill me so much that its loving flames consume me.

Stay, Lord, with me, it’s getting late and the shadows disappear, life passes, the count approaches, eternity, and it is necessary that I redouble my days, my efforts, that I continue on the path, that’s why I need you.

It is getting late and night is coming, darkness attacks me, temptations, obscurities, sorrows, crosses, dryness; and you are necessary to me, my Father, to encourage me on this night of exile, how much I need you Jesus!

Stay, Lord, with me, in this night of life and dangers, I want to see your clarity, show yourself and allow me to know you as your disciples in the breaking of the bread, that the Eucharistic union be the light that illuminates my darkness, the strength that keep and the joy that intoxicates my heart.

Stay, Lord, with me, when death comes, I want to be with You and if not really through Holy Communion, at least I want to have my soul with You through grace and a burning love.

Stay, Lord, with me, I do not ask you to feel your beloved presence and divine gifts that I do not deserve, but your presence in me by grace, oh, I do ask you!

Stay, Lord, with me, because I only seek you, your intimacy, love, heart, spirit and grace. I seek You for Yourself because I love You; and I ask for no other reward than loving you solidly, loving you only, loving you with all my heart on earth to continue loving you perfectly for all eternity.
