May the lord accept the sacrifice at your hands for the praise

And Glory of His name,four our good and the good of all His Holy Church… About 6 months ago Cajun Joy posted a story a priest had told about what these words meant to him He said that when these words were said he felt that he was entering a gulf hovering between heaven and earth, offering the Sacrifice of Jesus, to His Father. . This was the most important thing he would ever do as a priest… I have never forgotten that and whenever I go to Mass I say those words very slowly and I am attentive of everything I say…I look to the priest and then to the ceiling of the church knowing that heaven opened to receive this Sacrifice. I have told our priest and many others of the story. many have said that they have stopped to listen to what they were saying…I thank Cajun Joy for posting that …The image I have is forever in my heart… Try, you will see a difference God bless you

This has stuck with me as well. Every mass, every time I focus on what I am saying and what is taking place/about to take place.

It was a gift.

Every now and then you read things on CAF that completely change the way you look at something. That’s what keeps me coming back here.

We use this in our youth program. It is a great way to teach the youth about what the Mass really is.
