The Feast of Corpus Cristi (2026)
Our Lady of Love said
That I should fix my eyes
Upon your Passion, dear Jesus,
And so I come here before you,
On this dark day at Golgotha.
With blind faith,
I stand here at the foot
Of your holy cross,
Thirsting for your holy love,
And what do I see now
Hanging humbly upon the cross?
I see the one
Who came into this world
As a sweet little babe,
The Babe of Bethlehem,
Who left the City of Love,
To come down here to the
Land of Broken Hearts,
To teach us how to love.
And what did you do,
For the first thirty years
Of your hidden life?
What did you do,
As a child
In a foreign land,
As a stranger in Egypt?
What did you do,
As a young boy
In your homeland,
As a poor child in Nazareth?
What did you do,
As a young man,
At your father’s side,
As a carpenter’s apprentice?
As a youth,
You lived a simple life of love,
Through your little thoughts,
Through your little words,
Through your little actions,
But then The Babe of Love
Gradually matured into
The Boy of Love,
And eventually into
The Man of Love.
And then,
For the last three years,
You finally revealed yourself as
The Messiah of Love,
And taught us how to
Think in love,
Speak in love,
Act in love.
So now, as I look up,
And see you on the cross,
I see Love, nothing but Love,
Pure Love,
Wholehearted Love,
And your sacred heart
Was pierced so that you,
The Divine Mercy,
Could fill my soul,
Refreshing it, renewing it,
And making it a new creation,
Through the power of Love!
