Pope Francis said, “In celebrating and experiencing the Eucharist, we too are called to share in [Christ’s] love. For we cannot break bread on Sunday if our hearts are closed to our brothers and sisters.”
Our Holy Father also said, "What, then, does He desire from us? He desires a great intimacy. He wants us to share with him our joys and sufferings, desires and fears, hopes and sorrows, people and situations. Let us do this, with confidence: let us open our hearts to him, let us tell him everything. Let us pause in silence [after we receive the eucharist] … to savour the tenderness of God who became near, who became flesh."
Today reflect on the awesome gift of the Eucharist that we are privileged to receive.
May God Be Praised.
