Hi All,
Just wanted to share this. It was not the first time I’ve participated in Eucharistic Adoration- I was born and raised Catholic, etc.- but I never fully participated in it until early this morning…
My church has a 24 hour EA once a month. Like many small churches, a select group of elders keep traditions going. I have gotten very active in the church the last year or so- a change in jobs/title has given me more time to devote to my church- and I noticed that the sign up sheet to spend an hour with the Lord was pretty slim. So, I emailed the lady who is in charge of the list and told her I would volunteer for whatever they could not fill. I was given the hours of 2am-5am.
So, I set the clock and went to bed early.
No one came in during those hours so I had all that time to really pour out my heart to the Lord. I prayed, talked, read my Bible and had the most wonderful and touching experience I’ve had in a long time. The peace and quiet and feeling of being loved stayed with me the whole time. The 3 hours flew bye and I came out of there fully charged- rejuvenated and felt great all day long. I will definitely volunteer next month again.
I then left there and met up with a Men’s Prayer Breakfast I attend once a month, also. I was thrilled to see that we had people from 5 different denominations this morning to attend. Everyday, in my little town and across world politics, I see the beginnings of all of us coming together under one church again. I can’t wait!
God Bless you all,
EricW.
