*Spiritual Visit....................February 27




Keep HIM company this Lent

"When you awake in the night,
transport yourself quickly
IN SPIRIT
before the Tabernacle,
saying: Behold, my God,
I come to adore You,
to praise, thank, and love you,
and to keep your company
with all the Angels."

St. John Vianney

  1. Dearest Micki,
    What a powerful picture and quote. The Eucharist is our saving grace, our spiritual food...God bless you!

  3. Greetings Micki! Thank you for posting yet another "Treasure" for all of us to enjoy! I got chills as I read the text for today also, very moving and I am going to try to incorporate this beautiful prayer into my daily devotions. I have insominia often and this text will help me to do just what it says with God's Grace! A blessed evening to all of your visitors and to you as well. John K.

  4. Friends,

    Sorry, but I overlooked the words on this card yesterday.

    Here is the meaning of the French words:

    (At the top:)
    "The meeting-place of reverent souls"

    (At the bottom:)
    "Come to me, all you who toil and collapse under the burden of your sorrows, and I will give you relief!"

  5. Prayerflowers - Yes, a grace and food we crave. Blessings.

    Eric - Thank you, me too.

    John K. - I know what you mean about "insominia"...I think it's also a good idea to put this into practice. Hope you continue to remember this when needed.

    John - A big thank you again for your added help with my cards.

  6. A Blessed Lenten season to you - this is a wonderful thing to remember - I rarely sleep a night through and I pray when I wake but I never thought to imagine myself before a Tabernacle - I love it.

  7. St. Blog - Glad this gave you further inspiration for those non-sleeping moments. Say one for me too. Thank you.
