Mary, Mother of Jesus, I dedicate this little work to thee, and I commence it on the Feast of thy Expectation, because that Expectation should be the model of our desire of receiving Jesus, born anew in us continually by the Most Holy Sacrament. O Mother, may it be ever out desire to receive Him as thou didst receive Him; to love Him as thou didst love Him; to entertain Him as thou didst entertain Him. May the summons to each Communion be to us an angelic annunciation of His renewed Incarnation in that mystery of love; may our desire of receiving Him be like unto thy desire and expectation of His Birth; and may we, having received Him, bring Him forth to the world in the actions of our daily life; for thus is He born anew in the hearts of His faithful ones, and thus does He live anew in their lives whose life is His. Convent of Poor Clares, Kenmare, Holy Thursday, 1866. This book, "Intentions forMass &Holy Communion For Every Day in the Year," by Unknown, is a replication of a book originally published before 1866. It has been restored by human beings, page by page, so that you may enjoy it in a form as close to the original as possible.
