Reflection: The Presence of Christ

I am so drawn to you.
No matter where I am, I feel You calling to me from the Tabernacle. 
You pull on my heart and lead me directly to this chapel, and here my heart is so full of you, Jesus.
My heart has begun to ache with the desire to be even closer to you.
I'm being pulled in a million different directions, trying to find You in all of them,
And yet I am the happiest, I am most myself when I am sitting here with you, letting your gaze penetrate my soul.
Nothing will compare to the closeness I have with you, and though Satan tries to break us apart,
You give me the Sacrament of Reconciliation as a straight and narrow road back to this union we have.
There are so many moments during the day that I feel you calling out to me from the Chapel,
And in those moments I almost want to drop everything and run as fast as I can to sit here with You and allow my soul to be covered in your radiance.
You are so good to me, Jesus.
I am overwhelmed by your presence. 
I am overwhelmed by your goodness and all the blessings you have given to me.


​JV 10/14/16
