Prayer After Holy Communion

Prayer After Holy Communion

O Lord,

may my eyes that behold You elevated above the altar

only look upon what is pure and good.

May I use my eyes to see others as You see them,

as Your precious and beloved children.

May my hand that holds Your precious body

touch others only with love and compassion.

May my tongue which touches

Your Precious Body and Precious Blood for a moment

only speak truth, kindness, and love.

May my mind which contemplates You

understand the value and great love You give me.

May my heart understand

the true and sacrificial love You have for me.

May my soul one day

be in Heaven with You.

Amen.

This Prayer After Holy Communion is a prayer we can pray after receiving Holy Communion or during adoration as we behold Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. We can also pray it at any time as a way to dedicate ourselves to God, asking Him to help us to be more like Jesus. Jesus gives us an amazing gift in the Eucharist. He gives us Himself: His body, blood, soul, and divinity in the Sacrament of His most Precious Body and Blood.

After we receive Him, we can go back to our lives as if we were untouched by God, or we can allow Him to come into us to transform us and help us to be closer to Him and more like Him. Because of our free will, we have that choice. He loves us so much that He gives us that choice. With His guidance and help, may we chose to know, love, and serve Him the best we can each day of our lives. May we allow ourselves to become transformed a bit more every day.
