My Journey to God

Consecration

Christ removes the veil
That covers the temple
Each time His body and blood
Are lifted up at Mass.

Heaven and earth are joined.
We are one with the
Communion of Saints.

Just as the curtain in the temple
Was torn in two
As Christ gave up his life for us on the cross.
There is now no division between
God and man,
Heaven and earth.

Thank you, Lord Jesus,
For saving us and giving us
Hope of life eternal.
Thank you for your sacrifice
And for giving us every spiritual gift
That we need to make it through this life
And someday live
in the fullness of your life in heaven.
