Lenten
Meditations on Receiving
Holy Communion During Lent...
A meditation from The Liturgical Year by Abbot Dom Guéranger, O.S.B.
"I left with you the Bread of life; I gave Myself to you. I am always among you in the tabernacles of your world. No man shall enter the Kingdom unless he eats of the Bread of life." - Jesus, May 26, 1976
Of all the works whereby a Christian can sanctify the time of Lent, there is none so pleasing to God as to assist at the holy Sacrifice of the Mass, in which is offered the Victim of man's salvation. But now that his own unworthiness is more than ever evident to him, ought he to abstain from partaking, by holy Communion, of this life-giving and purifying Host? Such is not our Saviour's will. He came down from heaven, not to judge, but to save us (St. John 3:17). He knows how long and rugged is the road we have to traverse, before we reach that happy day, on which we shall rest with Him, in the joy of His Resurrection. He has compassion on us; He fears lest we faint in the way (Mt. 15:32); and He, therefore, offers us the divine food, which gives light and strength to our souls, and refreshes them in their toil. We feel that our hearts are not yet pure enough; let us then, with a humble and contrite heart, go to Him, who has come that he may restore to our souls their original beauty. Let us, at all times, remember the solemn injunction which this Saviour so graciously deigned to give us: 'Except ye eat the Flesh of the Son of Man, ye shall not have life in you' (St. John 6:54).
If, therefore, sin has no longer dominion over us; if we have destroyed it by true sorrow and sincere confession, made efficacious by the absolution of God's priest: let us not deprive ourselves of the Bread of life (St. John 6:35), no matter how great soever our infirmities may seem; for it is for us that our Jesus has prepared the feast. If we feel that the chains of sin are still upon us; if by self-examination made with the light of the truth that is now granted to us, we discover in our souls certain stains, which the false principles of the world and too easy a conscience have hitherto made us overlook; let us lose no time, let us make a good confession: and when we have made our peace with the God of mercy, let us approach the holy Table, and receive the pledge of our reconciliation.
Yes, let us go to holy Communion, during this season of Lent, with a most heart-felt conviction of our unworthiness. If may be that hitherto we have sometimes gone with too much familiarity, on account of our not sufficiently understanding our nothingness, our misery, and the infinite holiness of of the God who thus unites Himself with His sinful creatures. Henceforth, our heart shall be more truthful; blending together the two sentiments of humility and confidence, we will say, with an honest conviction, those words of the centurion of the Gospel, which the Church puts upon our lips, when she is distributing to us the Bread of life: 'Lord, I am not worthy that Thou shouldst enter under my roof; say but the world, and my souls shall be healed' (Mt. 8:8).
Our Lady of the Roses awesome Bayside Prophecies...
https://www.tldm.org/../Bayside/
These prophecies came from Jesus, Mary, and the saints to Veronica
Lueken at Bayside, NY, from 1968 to 1995.
Christ's Passion as seen and experienced by Veronica...
The passion as seen in vision during the praying of the Sorrowful Mysteries. Present during this phenomena were Camille Debrowski, Ben and Mary Solomone, and Evelyn Murphy. VERONICA RECEIVED THE STIGMATA OF THE HANDS AND FEET AT THIS TIME (March 8, 1971). A cross appeared on her right foot in the instep area, directly in line with the big toe and second toe, near the center of the instep; but over to her left side of the instep, centered between the ankle area and toes. The nail bruise appeared on the instep of the left foot, more centered between the second and third toe from the large toe - center of instep. The right foot was crossed over the left in leftward direction. The cross fitted perfectly in line with the nail mark on the left foot.
Jesus started by requesting that on the three initial bead of the Rosary we say the Acts of Faith, Hope, and Charity. Then we entered into the Sorrowful Mysteries. During the first decade I saw Jesus on His knees, bent over in anguish, praying. He was wearing a long burgundy colored cape over an inner garment of beige control material, long and flowing. There was a great sadness in His face - great sorrow. He was talking to His Father in Heaven:
"FATHER, I WILL DRINK OF THIS CUP, DOWN TO THE LAST DREG, IF IT BE YOUR WILL. IT IS NOT I THAT SHOULD SEEK THAT THIS CUP BE REMOVED FROM ME. MY STRENGTH IS EVERLASTING IN THE LIGHT AND MY HEART A BLEEDING VESSEL FOR THIS CUP."
The second mystery: Veronica cried out: "No, no, stop that!" For there was her beloved Jesus being pulled to and fro as His tormentors pulled his upper garment from his back. They tied His wrists together and drove a spike into an upright beam. Jesus' hands were bound by strips of a brown leather-like cord. Then the central part of the cord that bound His hands was looped over the spike in the beam. Poor Jesus was pinned by His hands (looped over the beam). There were five people in this cave-like room that appeared to be dug out of a hillside - a sort of hole-room in the hillside.
Veronica screamed and winced as two soldiers took turns hitting Jesus' bare back with a long brown leather-like strap. On this strap were metal hooks, laid horizontally all along the strap. These nail-like, claw-like fixtures on the strap cut and scratched deeply into Jesus' flesh, causing blood to pour out. It was a despicable game with the soldiers. They laughed and joked; Jesus said never a word. Veronica cried: "Say something! Say something!" He could save Himself, but Jesus remained silent as they spat and insulted Him. His back became a mass of welts and torn flesh. Jesus was barefoot; His sandals had fallen off ad they banged a stake higher into the pole and raised poor Jesus up so His toes barely touched the floor. The floor was just dirt and blood. The soldier remarked: "Maybe they cut out His tongue. Ha, ha!" Our poor Jesus remained silent.
Off to the side I saw a room; there was a large kettle-like pot, real old-looking; of rough metal, a deep reddish brown in color- very large. Underneath was a fire burning; there was a heavy liquid bubbling. Off to the side was another longer, metal receptacle filled with water. There were two soldiers dressed in short dresses - short, knee-length skirts - with pointed, metal pieces hanging down in a pattern of triangles all around the waist, front and back.
They had a metal vest-like covering on their chests and silver-colored, metal headpieces that were shaped like a cap but swooped up to a flowing design on the top. Three other men were almost naked; dressed in diaper-like clothing. They were holding a long piece of metal; they placed the end in the large kettle; it had a red, hot glow. Then the third man had a large mallet-like hammer and he beat on the hot metal. He was pounding it round and round until it looked like a spike. He would then douse it in that metal water trough.
Two soldiers were talking over at the side; later they took the five spikes (there were five large spikes made). Veronica then saw Jesus; He had been cut from the post and had fallen over. A soldier roughly pulled Him over to a wicker-like stool and plunked Jesus onto it. Poor Jesus hung forward, and a nasty soldier put a long stick in His hands to balance Him up, and yelled: "Ha, Ha! So this is 'the King of the Jews.' Let's dress Him as fitting!" The soldier went outside to return with an armful of briars...bush. He used the metal tongs to make it easier to handle. He made a sort of cap and stuffed a circlet of briars into it; in that way he could handle it better and shove it on poor Jesus' head. The thorns were too hard to weave, stay together, so the cap was thought of. It was so big and kept batting it down with a stick! The sadist gloated as he swung. Jesus, dearest Savior, said never a word. The pain was excruciating. Tears coursed down the cheeks of our poor Jesus, but they were of sorrow. The greatest pain was in His heart!
Jesus' hands were tied again with the brown leather-like material, and He was dragged to His feet; the soldier draped His top gown over His torn back. Oh, I could see it stick to His oozing blood. Oh, it was horrible! Then a soldier pushed Jesus out of the hole-like entrance, and down a road. There were many people; all in a spirit of carnival. Two soldiers stood it up and another put Jesus over to it. Two soldiers started to tie His hands onto it. It was supported across His back and on the shoulders. It looked awfully heavy and awkward. The brown leather rope was taut across His elbow area. He seemed to be balancing and supporting the beam as He struggled on.
There were three ladies and a man walking off to one side with Him. The ladies were weeping silently. The man had his arm about a lady. The man was very tall. He had a long, brown gown on and he had a brown beard and dark brown hair. The ladies wore beige-colored gowns, but one lady had a purple coat- like garment over hers.
Jesus tripped and fell. He was so weak now; the beam had thrown Him off balance as He staggered. Poor Jesus fell. One nasty, old man ran out of the crowd to spit and kick Him - the nasty old beast! I tried to tear off my tunic to wipe the blood out of His eyes. It was awful! He looked up at me - the soldiers wouldn't let me through - I pulled at my hair in frustration and anguish. Jesus looked at me and I saw the Loce of an Eternal, glorious Promise. I cried: "What could I do?" I screamed: "Help Him! Help Him! Please!" I, Veronica, was helpless to lift the Cross. I could only hope to wipe His dear face. Soon a soldier grabbed a man out of the crowd; this man had a long gown on with stripes down the front, and he had a turban wrapped around his head with stripes in the front. He sure didn't want to carry the beam, but they knew Jesus couldn't make it to the outskirts of the town, so this man shouldered the beam while the insane crowd taunted. Jesus was pushed and pulled along; dirt and blood were all over Him. He was a picture of bloody grime...
I was retching - I was sick - Oh, such a horror! Such torture! How could they do this to Him? What did he do but love everyone! Beasts! Beasts! Soon the soldier ran up with the five spikes. When they reached the hill, there was a long piece of wood already on the ground. A soldier lifted the beam from the shoulders of this other man and threw it to the ground. Two other soldiers placed it on top of the long piece of wood to form a cross, long, all the way down and sort of sticking out at the top. They slammed one spike into the two beams and the cross was made.
Two lousy soldiers threw Jesus to the ground, and they pulled His arms out to stretch across the cross beam. Oh, how it hurt - the back was so turn. I could see the pain in Jesus' eyes, but He never uttered a word. He just looked sad. Then they took brown, leather-like cord and wrapped it around His wrists at the board bound to the board. Then they lifted and tied the wrists to the board; bound and wound the leather cord around the ankles and the wood to hold Him in place. Then the spikes were thrown onto the ground and one soldier got down on his knees and placed the spike in the center of the palm of poor Jesus' hand; with that metal mallet he drove it in through the skin and out into the board. I screamed! I threw up! This was repeated on the right hand. Then Jesus looked up to the sky. They started on the legs; one large spike into both feet; His right foot over the left, at a twisted sort of angle, placed to lie flat against each other. I retched as I heard the metal against flesh and bone and wood. One spike protruded out the other side. They hammered a block of wood under His poor feet, 'to line' em up,'they said. It was awful!
I looked off into the crowd; oh, there were only nine people there to stay with Jesus. I now knew His Mother, Mary Clephalus (the wife of Clopas), Mary Magdalen, and John. Oh, poor Jesus, never a word did He say as they nailed Him to the wood. Oh, such love! Soon, two soldiers lifted the head of the wood and three the bottom, carrying Jesus on the cross, and dropped the end into a hole; it went in with a thump! Jesus winced, and it tore His hands more. Blood was trickling down His face. He couldn't move His head. The pain was awful; each movement cut deep. It was awful! He sagged a bit, but pulled upward. The sagging tore more. Mary and Mary ran up to Him; they did not speak at first; they could talk with their eyes to each other. They didn't need words. John came over for Jesus' bottom tunic fell down. Oh, dear, He was almost naked. I turned away, but John ran over and tied sort of knots in it like a diaper. Oh, the humiliation to poor Jesus! Then Jesus said to John: "BEHOLD, JOHN, YOUR MOTHER, AND THIS, MOTHER, IS YOUR SON. I MUST GO TO THE FATHER SOON."
The crowd started to move off. Jesus cried: "ABBA, ABBA SABBA LA BEC TORI" - that is what if sounded like - a foreign sound. SABBA SABBA SABBA LA BEC TORI; I can't spell it well, just by sound. Then He looked up, "I THIRST!" This I heard in English. Water, yellowish water. Jesus' head hung down to His right. It became dark, so dark. Everyone went away but the nine; they all came close and Mary clung to His feet, wordless in sorrow.
Veronica finished the recitation of what she experienced to find her feet swollen and her arms sore; the feet marked and the hands stinging. Her wordless reaction was a mixture of wonder, joy, and love; joy that now she could join Jesus in His suffering and hold His hand on the Road to the Kingdom.
