Reflections from the Diary of Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska
Sunday, June 7
Eucharist
Heaven on Earth
... I want to tell you that eternal life must begin already here on earth through Holy Communion. Each Holy Communion makes you more capable of communing with God throughout eternity (Diary, 1811).
When I received Him into my heart, the veil of faith was torn away. I saw Jesus who said to me, My daughter, your love compensates Me for the coldness of many souls. After these words, I was once again alone, but throughout the whole day I lived in an act of reparation (Diary, 1816).

My Prayer Response:
O Lord Jesus, every Holy Communion with You here on earth is already a sharing in the Heavenly Liturgy at the throne of the Father. Help me and all who receive Holy Communion to be ever more capable of communing with You throughout eternity!

"For all, regenerated in Christ, are made kings by the sign of the cross; they are consecrated priests by the oil of the Holy Spirit, so that beyond the special service of our ministry as priests, all spiritual and mature Christians know that they are a royal race and are sharers in the office of the priesthood. For what is more king-like than to find yourself ruler over your body after having surrendered your soul to God? And what is more priestly than to promise the Lord a pure conscience and to offer him in love unblemished victims on the altar of one’s heart?"
— St. Leo the Great
