Presentation transcript:

Act of Consecration to Jesus Lord Jesus Christ, I consecrate myself today anew and without reserve to your divine heart. I consecrate to you my body with all its senses, my soul with all its faculties, my entire being. I consecrate to you all my thoughts, words, and deeds, all my sufferings and labors, all my hopes, consolations, and joys. In particular I consecrate to you this poor heart of mine so that it may love only you and may be consumed as a victim in the fire of your love. I place my trust in you without reserve and I hope for the remission of my sins through your infinite mercy. I place within your hands all my cares and anxieties. I promise to love you and to honor you till the last moment of my life and to spread, as much as I can, devotion to your most Sacred Heart. Do with me what you will, my Jesus. I deserve no other reward except your greater glory and your holy love. Take this offering of myself and give me a place within your divine heart forever. Amen.

Lesson Four: Due Worship

Sacrifice To offer up something God wanted sacrifice from man prior to the Fall Before the Fall, man could offer his whole self back to God

Offer Your Best Remember the example of Cain and Abel – offer your best and don’t hold anything back, reserving it for yourself. If you offer the best, you signify that you’re willing to offer it all.

Sacrifice to God Before After Body Soul Grace The Fall

Old Testament Sacrifice The sacrifice of the Hebrew people pleased God It could not make up for sin; it didn’t restore grace and thus man couldn’t offer to God the sacrifice needed

Jesus’ Sacrifice Body Soul Grace God (the Son) becomes Man He is fully man, so he has a body and a soul Since he’s God, he’s the source of: Grace He offers himself to God the Father Hebrews 9:13-14, “For if the blood of goats and bulls and the sprinkling of a heifer’s ashes can sanctify those who are defiled so that their flesh is cleansed, how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal spirit offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from dead works to worship the living God. Body Soul Grace

Sharing How do we share in Christ’s sacrifice? Through the Sacraments, especially the Eucharist offered in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. Jesus offers his body, blood, soul, and divinity – his whole self. 1 Corinthians 10:16-17, “The cup of blessing that we bless, is it not a participation in the blood of Christ? The bread that we break, is it not a participation in the body of Christ? Because the loaf of bread is one, we, though many, are one body, for we all partake of the one loaf.” At a MINIMUM, we MUST attend Mass on every Sunday and on every Holy Day of Obligation

Sacrifice – The Same The sacrifice of Christ offered: At the Last Supper On the Cross In the Mass It is the same sacrifice. In the Mass it is offered in an unbloody manner (Christ does not suffer and die again).

ACTS ACTS = Adoration, Contrition, Thanksgiving, Supplication

Adoration Worship or adoration of God Attitude of man acknowledging he is a creature before his Creator

Contrition Sorrow for sin committed, together with the resolution not to sin again Perfect Contrition – sorrow for sin based upon love of God Imperfect Contrition – sorrow for sin based upon fear of punishment

Thanksgiving Saying thank you for God for what he has given us, especially the Eucharist The Eucharist is a sacrifice of thanksgiving to the Father, a blessing by which the Church expresses her gratitude to God for all his benefits, for all that he has accomplished through creation, redemption, and sanctification

Supplication To ask, to beseech, plead, invoke, cry out, It is a prayer of petition by which we express awareness of our relationship with God and our dependence upon him
