Publisher's Synopsis
In the classic God Calling, Jesus spoke to Two Listeners. In Jesus Calling: Enjoying Peace in His Presence, Jesus speaks to us about acknowledging His presence in our everyday lives. In this re-issued thirty-one-day devotional, Love Calling: Finding True Peace in His Real Presence, the reader will be caught up in the pious simplicity and unpretending devotion of the original author as they hear his words of affection to Jesus. Each visit begins with a Salutation to our Lord, followed by a prayer or address to Him under some special title, such as Jesus, the Lamb of God; Jesus, My Treasure; Jesus, My Consolation; Jesus, Our Physician; or in a conversation in which the soul addresses Jesus, and He in turn answers the soul. When you don't know what to say when visiting our Lord, this book will help you find the words to speak to your Lord and Savior.
Originally authored by a German Franciscan priest and titled Visits: Thirty-One Visits to the Blessed Sacrament, it was rereleased in 1892 by a Franciscan priest in Old English. This devotional has been reedited into modern English for contemporary readers by a Third Order Secular Franciscan. These Visits are arranged after the method of Saint Alphonsus Liguori, but they are completely different in character and tone. It is the hope of the editor that this beautiful book be made available to readers, so having been transformed by Love, they can go out and transform the world. Sitting in silence is very hard to do. We have so many distractions. Sitting with Jesus, the King of the universe, is also very hard to do if you are not prepared. This book will help you find the words to talk to Jesus so you will be blessed by spending time in His Real Presence. Jesus said, "So you could not keep watch with Me for one hour?"
