What does Adoration mean for Catholics?

Adoration, for Catholics, means to be in the presence of GOD Himself in the form of the Blessed Sacrament exposed in a "monstrance." Catholics believe that the bread and wine which are used in the Mass, after the words of Consecration, become the Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Our Lord Jesus Christ (The Second Person of the Trinity). Once the Host (bread) is consecrated it is transformed from its original substance (bread) into a supernatural substance (The Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Jesus) - it is GOD Himself in the appearance of Bread...The essence changes .... though the substance (appearance) remains. This Host is placed in a container called a Luna, which is placed in a "Monstrance" - a a decorated container for exposition - which is placed on an Altar for Adoration. The Adoration which is given is worship, prayer, and communion with The Lord Himself. When one goes to Adoration, with a prayerful mind, one is humbled and awed at that one is in the Presence of the Lord and is still alive - Nothing unclean shall see the Lord - and one is brought into closer communion with the Lord. To sit and worship the Lord is a comfort and a Blessing...where prayers are answered and hopes fulfilled... a quiet place where one knows true love
