Last few days of April. Dedicated to the Blessed Sacrament.
It is indeed a tremendous miracle to see God taking flesh and becoming man, and a greater miracle still to see Him suspended on the cross.But the highest of all miracles, O Christ our God, is Your ineffable presence under the mystic species. Truly You did institute, through this great Sacrament, a remembrance of all Your marvels. How merciful of You, O God, to give Yourself as food to those who fear You! To recall Your covenant forever, and to remember your passion and your death until the day of Your glorious coming!
From Benediction, Byzantine Daily Worship, Alleluia Press, 1969.
“When you look at the crucifix, you understand how much Jesus loved you. When you look at the Sacred Host you understand how much Jesus loves your now.”
Saint Mother Theresa.
