More Blessed Than One Who Held Him

"Simeon gave back Jesus to His Mother, he was only suffered to keep Him for one moment. But we are far happier than Simeon. We may keep Him always if we will. In Communion He comes not only into our arms but into our hearts." ~St. John Vianney

Simeon was blessed to have Jesus in His presence for but a moment, how much more are we blessed to be in the presence of Jesus in adoration and to have Him present in us as we receive Him in the Eucharist!

This week as you receive Communion, ponder the profoundness of how blessed you are to have Christ come into your heart.
