Prayer and reflection #9

First Reading: Jeremiah 31:31-34
Psalm: Psalm 51:3-4, 12-15
Second Reading: Hebrews 5:7-9
Gospel: John 12:20-33

Lord Jesus Christ, You are the Law itself. You are the Logos, the Mind, the great I AM. You are the Living God who is Justice Himself. You promised us, during Jeremiah's time, that You will put Your law within us and write it upon our hearts. And now, You have fulfilled Your promise. You have come down from Heaven and became flesh. You have instituted the Holy Eucharist and through this sacrament, we are able to receive You, in the flesh, the Word itself, the Law itself.

Lord, please help me to see Your face, Your living presence, in the circumstances of my daily life, and inside my heart. Amen.
