147 The Eucharist is one of the most tangible ways God is present in our world today. If confusion or loneliness weighs too heavily on our hearts, if we struggle with meaninglessness, if we long to step off life s frantic treadmill and slow down to ponder the direction of our lives, Jesus invites us, Come to me. The Eucharist can become our safest refuge where we share with Jesus our vulnerability, our pain, our weakness and where we bring our concerns for others, our worries for the wounds of the world, hoping to find them transformed into his joy, his love, and his peace. 148 A marvelously comprehensive collection of prayers, readings, and reflections, Bread of Prayers for Eucharistic Adoration gently leads us to the feast of Jesus love. Includes sections of prayers for transformation, prayers for particular needs, prayers from the hearts of believers, and three full hours of Eucharistic adoration Marie Paul Curley, FSP and Therese Ratliff, 250 pages, leather
