SPIRITUAL COMMUNION

MY JESUS,
I BELIEVE THAT YOU ARE PRESENT IN THIS HOLY SACRAMENT OF THE ALTAR.
I LOVE YOU ABOVE ALL THINGS
AND I PASSIONATELY DESIRE TO RECEIVE YOU INTO MY SOUL.
SINCE I CANNOT NOW RECEIVE YOU SACRAMENTALLY,
COME SPIRITUALLY INTO MY SOUL
SO THAT I MAY UNITE MYSELF WHOLLY TO YOU NOW AND FOREVER.
AMEN.

a prayer of St Alphonsus Maria Liguori
