I went to Mass recently, and while waiting for my turn to receive communion there was something unusual that I witnessed. After a little boy received communion, he ran away excitedly with a huge smile on his face. Lol! Seeing that made me smile and brought me great joy.
I have no idea where he ran to because he ran out of the church hahaha. Maybe his family was seated in the hall outside the church. I didn’t know exactly what he was happy about, It could have been many things. Maybe he was excited he’s going home soon, or he received something cool from his parents before Mass or that he just received God during Mass. All I know is that the little boy was excited and joyful and seemed like he wanted everyone around him to see that he was happy and share in that joy.
The Lord told me through that little boy’s actions and emotions that after receiving His Son at Mass, I should always be outwardly excited, happy, and joyful to be and bring the joy of Christ wherever I go especially after Mass! I should be overflowing with joy in my body as I am in my soul that it overflows among everyone I encounter. Praise God for that little boy 😀
Cause of our Joy, pray for us!
