During the consecration I was overwhelmed by God’s precious grace, mercy and love. I lost it and sobbed. God is good. He loves us all with an everlasting love that is overwhelming to comprehend.
Praise His holy name.
 
This has happened to me many times. I don’t know if this is what they mean by “ecstasy”? But it is such an overwhelming and humbling feeling! I wish all of us could feel this at every Mass. Maybe that’s what heaven is like! I wish I experienced this more, but I look at it as a tremendous gift from God. ❤️
 
I’ve cried during adoration a couple times because I really felt the mercy of God when I needed it most. It’s really very nice thing to experience, a gift of the Holy Spirit
 
I was pleased and honored to attend the ordination of a priest. At his first mass in our church afterward, he could barely speak during the consecration he was choking up. It was a moment I will never forget.
 
I, too, am often my moved emotionally during Mass. It is not unusual.
God bless you.
 
Mass is wonderful. The words and songs of praise and glory.
At a Mass one time, a stringed quartet played the Ave Maria. It was so beautiful, it brought tears to my eyes.
Sometimes after I receive communion, I am overcome with joy.
 
Been reading (and listening, mostly listening to the seven and something hour audio book) The Interior Castle over and over (and trying to stay without sin, pray the rosary daily and sometimes more than daily, go to confession, go to Mass, and consume the Holy Eucharist) in the hope that I could get there with you. Sadly, I think I’m still on the border between the second and the third room.

I know that after the third room, it’s all on God, not our efforts. I can’t even really get solidly into the third room though, and that is supposed to be all up to me.

Sounds to me like most of you are considerably farther along than I am. Wish I could get there with you.

Hmm . . . I think I was overoptimistic there. I’m nowhere near the third room. If the last couple of days are any indication, I’m still stuck solidly in the second room, and maybe not even very far into it.

As usual, things are not going well for me.
 
It is a blessing when the Lord gives us the gift of tears.

And…we have a memory to recall that time we felt Him so close! He is always so close to us whether we feel him close to us or not…thanks be to the Lord!
 
Only God knows where we really are…be at peace! Just keep doing your best and don’t be concerned about what room you are in.
 
The more profoundly we understand the Mystery of the Eucharist, the more we grow in awe and wonder before our Lord and God and Savior, Jesus Christ.
The Psalmist teaches us: a humbled, contrite heart you will not spurn

We should all be struck with holy fear before the Lord, as was Moses before the bush, and the cherubim before the seat of God.

I experience a wide range of emotion during Mass.
Sometimes I cry. Sometimes I feel so much joy that I smile and feel like I may burst with joy.
The Mass is wonderful. Giving praise and glory to God through words and song is very, very special.
