April 12, 2010: My Heart is Afire

This picture was taken at the Adoration after Holy Thursday Mass. I was amazed at how the Eucharist took the form of a heart.

My heart is afire
with your love
intoxicated with your scent
and at peace
with the gift of your peace
.
o Beloved Jesus
all I am
all I do
all I desire is yours
.
I am departing from
the confines and darkness
of my house
I am free and driven
to seek you out
pant for you
die for you
and live with you for all eternity
.

Easter Joy at Queen of Peace Catholic Community in Gainesville! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!

Nothing else is worth

even a taste or glimpse
of your glory and love
.
Only at Eucharist
Your Body and Blood
before me and within me
am I at home
at your table
I lack nothing
.
Teach me
Move me
to go out into the dark night
and bring all people
Home to You with You and in You
forever
sisters and brothers, sons and daughters,
fathers and mothers, and lovers
Amen!
Alleluia!

Beloved, I have been reflecting on the questions that Jesus asked after he was raised from the dead. A great meditation would be to pick just one of these and imagine that Jesus is asking you. How would you answer the question today?

“Woman, why are you weeping?”
“Whom are you looking for?”

“What are you discussing along the way?”
“What sort of things?”
“O how foolish you are! How slow of heart to believe all that the prophets spoke.
Was it not necessary that the Messiah should suffer these things and enter into his glory?”

“Why are you troubled? And why do questions arise in your hearts?”
“Have you anything here to eat?”

“Have you come to believe because you have seen me?”

“Children, have you caught anything to eat?”

“Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these?”
“Simon, son of John, do you love me?”
“Do you love me?”

“What if I want him to remain until I come? What concern is it of yours?”

Please check out my website. It was renewed, refreshed and enlivened today. There are clips of my TV special that aired on EWTN and Catholic TV on November 11, 2009. There are also new pictures and much more. Please let others know about this. I have been getting quite a bit of correspondence and calls from the troops I served with in Fallujah and their families.

Love, joy, peace, and alleluia!
