The Reason for the Spiritual Famine: A Cry from the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus
Inspired by the Heart of Jesus to Cecil

“Why is there no weekly Adoration in your Parish?”

This question from Jesus is not just a personal lament—it is a divine cry echoing from every closed tabernacle and darkened church. Jesus, left alone and unadored, suffers silently. He longs to pour out grace, but no one comes. He waits in love, and the silence is His agony.

And so He reveals to us the root of the famine:

> “That is the reason for the Spiritual Famine.”

No confessors. 
No penitents. 
No catechists formed in fire. 
No catechism in truth. 
No conversions. 
No baptisms. 
No vocations. 

All of this flows from one wound: **lack of Adoration**—the second greatest prayer after the Holy Mass.

Jesus is clear: even the Mass is received in greater fruitfulness when it is surrounded by Adoration. Without it, the heart is often unprepared and the soul departs without full communion.

### The Saints Knew This:

– **St. John Vianney**: Adored before hearing thousands of confessions. 
– **St. Alphonsus Liguori**: Preached, wrote, and lived before the Eucharist. 
– **St. Ignatius of Loyola**: Formed soldiers for Christ in silence and sacrament. 
– **St. Faustina**: Gazed upon the Host and received the depths of Divine Mercy. 

They were not great because they acted—they were great because they **adored**.

### The Reformation and Today

The Protestant Reformation was preceded by spiritual decay and the death of Adoration. The same poison threatens the Church today: activity without presence, structure without spirit, doctrine without divine intimacy.

Jesus speaks again today:

> “If My children will not adore Me, who will nourish My Church?”

Let us not be part of the famine. Let us be **living monstrances**, walking tabernacles, who make up in love what others have forgotten.

Prayer:

“O Jesus, 
If no one will adore You, I will. 
If no one keeps vigil, I will. 
Let me be the flame that never dies before Your Tabernacle. 
Where there is famine, let me carry You as food. 
Where there is drought, let my tears water the ground for future saints. 
Raise up adorers, confessors, catechists, and apostles— 
From the silence of Your Eucharistic gaze. 
Amen.”
