Adoration

 How do I adore the presence of God?   What words do I utter?  What manner should I present myself?  Are there prayers to offer?  Are there sacrifices to prepare for the encounter?

 Lord I visit you and do not know what to do.  I sit there and wait, straining my ears to listen as my mind begins to wander; birthing different thoughts that seem to intrude to break the silence.  

I am speechless in awe of you but my mind and heart are in communion with you.  You are cloaked in the form of bread and your majesty in its simplicity baffles my soul.  I long with passion to see you enthroned as the sleeping eyes unveiled your mystery.  Then I shall see you as you truly are in all its glory.

For now, in this earthly confines I behold you, as a human reaching the understanding and wisdom of the ages, swept through the mouth of history the story that began with your incarnation, assuming human nature as the highway to salvation.  You are the foundation of all truths and through the church, your mystical body is revealed only as much as human knowledge and understanding may ever know.  Lord help me to open my eyes.
