Contemplate the shame and the confusion with which I listened to the derision poured on Me by that man. The executioners stretch Me upon the Cross. They violently seize and extend My arms that My hands may reach the holes they have prepared in the wood. Our Lord's words about His institution of the Holy Eucharist. Love gives Itself as food to Its own and this food is the substance which gives them their life and sustains them.
Love surrenders Itself in totality.
The Holy Eucharist is love to the extreme of folly. Father, forgive them for they know not what they do. They have not known Him Who is their life. On My shoulders they have heaped the fury of their iniquities. But I beseech Thee, Father, heap upon them the full measure of Thy mercy.
