Spiritual Communion
My Jesus –I believe that you are present in the Most Blessed Sacrament. I love you above all things, and I desire to receive you into my soul. Since I cannot now receive you sacramentally, Come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace you as if you were already there, unite me wholly to ou. Never permit me to be separated from you.
-Amen
