To be with

Sweet Lord, I'm missing people dear to me. I think of their faces, voices, the way they move and miss being with them even more. I long to spend time with them. Then I remember Sr Rose and how physically cut off she now is from all her loved ones. Yet she does spend time with them all, each and every one, in You, in the Eucharist. Teach me-that when I miss people I love so much, I can find them so easily in You - we can still spend time together in You. How I long for You. The desire You create in me is so strong it is almost painful dear dear sweet Lord- how do you create us like this, it is such a tremedous gift.

"When we gather at the Table, we are closer than our breath,
Even nearer than the angels, when we touch His very flesh,
Dwelling in each other's presence, I will hold you close inside,
Every soul in Heaven and Earth is now present in the Body of Christ."
(CD Pursue Me, Danielle Rose)
