Consider the generosity of our Savior: what He acquired by dying becomes
ours by eating. As often as we receive this Sacrament with proper
dispositions, we make our own the fruits of all the labors, injuries and
sufferings of His life, especially those borne at the time of His
passion and death. Just as the power and the sensations of the head
reach all the members of the body, in the same way, because Christ is “the head of the Church which is His Body” (Eph. 1:23), the treasures of His grace are made abundantly available to all who through charity are one with Him as living members.
Venerable Louis of Grenada
