How do I pray with Jesus exposed in the monstrance? What am I supposed to say?

When praying before Jesus’ Sacred Body exposed in the monstrance, you can certainly pray any prayers you like but really don’t need to say anything! The word monstrance comes from a Latin verb that means “to show.” Inside the monstrance is the consecrated Host; Jesus is quite literally showing himself to us fully revealing His Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity. The best way to pray with Jesus in the monstrance is to allow Jesus to look at us as we look at him. The same way that a man falling in love with a woman stares into her eyes without saying anything, so too should we stare into the eyes of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament and know that we are loved by God profoundly. Just as a young engaged couple, very much in love, loses themselves by staring into the eyes of their fiancé, so also do we lose ourselves in the loving eyes of God. When was the last time you allowed Jesus to really look at you? God wants to speak to you through His Son Jesus fully present in the Most Blessed Sacrament. You look at God and God looks at you in a loving embrace. May the Heart of Jesus, in the Most Blessed Sacrament, be praised, adored, and loved with grateful affection, at every moment on all the altars and in all the tabernacles of the world, even until the end of time. Amen.
