Eucharistic Reflection - What Will Save the World

(Photo ©Father Lawrence Lew, O.P. Used with Permission)

We see clearly how in lands of comfort, wealth and abundance, man destroys himself, self-destructs, because he forgets God and thinks only of his riches and earthly well-being. What saves the world is the bread of God. Man must be nourished with the bread of God - and the bread of God - is Christ Himself.

What will save the world is a man kneeling before God, to adore and to serve Him. God is not at our service. It is we who are at His service.
