ANOTHER REASON FOR WANTING TO SPEND 1 HOUR WITH JESUS IN THE BLESSED SACRAMENT: "How important it is, then, for the faithful, as they take part in the Eucharist, to assume a personal attitude of offering. It is not sufficient that they listen to the word of God, nor that they pray in common. It is necessary for them to make Christ's oblation their own, offering up their pains, their difficulties, their trials and, even more, themselves, together with Him and in Him so as to make this gift rise even to the Father, with the gift which Christ makes of Himself." - Pope John Paul II, Fear Not
