Eucharistic Reflection - God Is Not Loved!
“Think about it: If a
person treated his friends the way so many Catholics treat the Holy Eucharist,
they would soon find themselves having no friends. Yet how many Catholics
receive Holy Communion in the haphazard way? How many commit a sacrilege by
receiving Holy Communion in mortal sin? How many priests and bishops allow liturgical
abuses, idols and false gods to be set up in sanctuaries, immodest attire in church and tabernacles to be placed in closets or locations where nobody can
find Him? Has Jesus done something wrong that His Real Presence in the tabernacle
is so often banished to corridors and corners of the church? Why has He been
hidden behind a wall out of view of the entire congregation? It's horrible what
has taken place in recent years. Love is not loved!”
