Our Blessed Lady had been a living tabernacle for Christ, but I saw her standing at one side, head bent in humility.

Christ is Really Present in the tabernacle, constantly praying for us, His arms out-stretched in prayer towards the Father above, Whom Christ sees dwelling in the glory which we cannot yet see. It is as if, when we pray, we kneel by Christ's pierced feet and rely on His merits, certain that the Father hears us, for His sake.

Christ stood before the tabernacle, surrounded by adoring angels.

The Holy Angels in church told me: "Do as we do". They meant: Look towards Christ, Who is Really Present in the tabernacle, and yearn to serve and to please Him. Remain poised to do His Holy Will in the least manner, out of love for Him, the Holy One Who came from the Father to save us.

As soon as I greeted Christ at the tabernacle, I saw him appear high in the sanctuary, with His mother, for an anniversary visit.

Before the tabernacle, we are in the Presence of the living God, whose Triune glory fills the Church. To be close to Christ in the tabernacle is to be close to the living God Whose glory fills the church.

Christ loves to bring His friends refreshment and new courage through His Real Presence in the Blessed Sacrament. Whoever adores Christ before the tabernacle or monstrance, or receives Holy Communion, can be sure that, standing very close to Christ, are His Holy Mother and all the Saints too.

Christ is pleased by our devotion to Him at the tabernacle. He leans like a king from a palace window, arms open wide, to give a lovely greeting. He is alive, and risen, and Present with us. He with one with the Father and Holy Spirit, pictured close by Him.

People who use a Catholic church as merely a concert hall for secular music, or a meeting place for secular gatherings (sometimes even removing the Blessed Sacrament from the tabernacle) are like people taking a beautiful and sacred Reliquary box, to use it as a sandwich tin for a parish picnic.
