Countless saints incorporated this type of prayer into their daily lives. Making an act of spiritual communion was an essential part of life and drew them closer to God daily. The ultimate goal of our lives should be communion with God, and an act of spiritual communion can help a person draw closer to that goal.

Act of Spiritual Communion Prayer
My Jesus,
I believe that You
are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love You above all things,
and I desire to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment
receive You sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You.
Amen.
