I went to an hour of Adoration today. Afterwards I felt a bit numb to the world. And then I almost started crying for no apparent reason. But I had nothing to be sad about. I just felt a sense of something inside me dying, and I was alright with it. What is going on?
 
Has this ever happened to you? Feeling like crying after Adoration?
 
Thank you for telling me that! I am glad to know that it happens to other people too.
 
Is it also normal to feel like smiling when I take the Eucharist?
 
Oh thank goodness! I just hope HE does not think me as being disrespectful or irreverant. I do bow, and think “My Lord,” in my head.
 
Close encounter with our Lord can be funny like that 🙂

Peace!
 
Romans 8:26
In the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words. 🙂

I’d say perhaps a very deep prayer beyond words!

Yes I have cried during adoration too. In fact I cry at mass during the consecration a lot of the time, it’s just so overwhelming that the Almighty God is here in front of me hidden in this tiny host, making himself small once again for us. I also regularly feel such joy I honestly think I will die of it. I agree it’s a very emotional time. When I go to the advent/lent kind that ends at night and I come out into the dark I am very disorientated and not sure what world I am in, very eerie feeling.

I have seen people prostrate themselves on the floor and once a lady shout at Jesus (in anguish not disrespect ) and leave the room crying. I have also seen singing and laughing (but that was a procession) and people kneeling in the road in the pouring rain.
 
Similar things have happened to me too, especially when I realize how great God is, and how weak I am in comparison, and how sorry I am for sinning.

Sometimes I become really sorrowful for my sins when I have been at Adoration or before the Blessed Sacrament in church, and I will start to cry when I think that I am right in front of the Lord Himself, in His Real Presence.

It can REALLY “get to me” at times, when there.
