As I knelt after Communion I was in a very peaceful place and wanted to stay in that feeling. (This peaceful feeling is why I kneel until the last possible moment when the priest makes me stand up again and re-open my eyes.)
In my mind I saw an image of Jesus on the cross and had the thought: “Why I’m able to experience this feeling [of peace] is because Jesus experienced that feeling [of suffering/death].”
How great is God’s love for us!
