FEBRUARY 16
Frequent Communion and Holiness
|
PRAYER. Blessed Savior, You have given me the
privilege of receiving You in Holy Communion.
Help me to appreciate this marvelous gift.

BLESSED are they if they knew their
blessedness who are allowed, as we are,
Midweek after week, to seek and find the
Savior of their souls! Blessed are they who
are allowed to eat and drink the Food of
immortality and receive life from the bleeding
side of the Son of God!
Alas! By what strange coldness of heart or
perverse superstition is it that anyone called
Christian keeps away from that heavenly banquet?
