“St. Teresa of Avila once
marveled at the vulnerability of Our Lord in the Eucharist. One might be
overcome by the chance to meet a king, said St. Teresa. However, it should
never be forgotten that the King of the Universe has made Himself available to
us at all times, in every Catholic church. In every chapter of the story of
salvation, Our Lord seeks us out and draws ever closer to us, to be with us in
the most radical way in the Eucharist.
Today (Solemnity of the
Body of Christ) as we revel in the unabashed love that the Lord pours on us
through His true presence in the Eucharist, let us pray about how we allow this
Holy Communion to transform our interactions with each other.”
(From The Great Gift of
the Eucharist by Rev. Mr. Omar Gutierrez)
