Now those men, when they had seen what a miracle Jesus had done, said: This is of a truth the prophet that is to come into the world. (John 6:14.) The soul tastes the delights of heaven, is endued with spiritual strength, and filled with consolation and joy. Jesus Christ vouchsafes to nourish it with the adorable Bread which cometh down from heaven. (John 6:50.) Choose him as king, that he may govern you with absolute sway as Creator and Redeemer. All your powers and affections should exclaim: We desire that Jesus reign over us. The divine Savior, who fled from the temporal royalty with which this people desired to invest him, will never refuse to reign in souls that desire to live under his empire. Make him, therefore, king of your heart; beseech him to reign there, sovereignly, universally, and eternally. J. Nouet, S.J.
