QUOTE…
.
“I ask you: How do you abide in the presence of the Lord?
When you visit the Lord, when you look at the tabernacle, what do you do? Without speaking…
.
‘But I speak, I talk, I think, I meditate, I listen…’
Very good! But do you let yourself be looked at by the Lord?
.
Letting ourselves be gazed upon by the Lord.
He looks at us
and this is itself a way of praying.
.
Do you [let] yourselves be gazed upon by the Lord?
But how do you do this?
You look at the tabernacle and you let yourselves be looked at…it is simple!
.
‘It is a bit boring, I fall asleep.’
Fall asleep then, sleep! He is still looking at you.
But know for sure that He is looking at you!”
.
– Pope Francis
