To receive Communion the
usual two or three times a year is good and helpful, but to receive Communion
more frequently is far better. Remember, the nearer a person comes to the
light, the more light he gets. The closer he draws to the fire, the warmer he
is. The nearer he approaches sanctity, the more saintly he becomes.
In the same way, the more often one draws near to God in Communion, the more one receives light and warmth and holiness. My friend, if you are worthy to make your Communion two or three times a year, you are worthy of making it more often, as St. John Chrysostom tells us, by maintaining your own earlier preparation and worthiness.
But what does stop us from taking Communion?
