The Eucharist: The Sacred Heart
Thinking about the Eucharist
When we think about the Eucharist we think about Christ and his love for us. Thinking about the Eucharist is being drawn into a Mystery of love and compassion. Thinking about the Eucharist is learning to love what is hidden and remote as well as intimate and near. The Eucharist is our object of love, our eternal joy, our uniting bond of fellowship and charity. The Eucharist is all of the above and more, since it is the Incarnate Word glorious in his triumph over death, victorious over the sin that kept of bound to the powers of darkness and faithful to his promises to be our “way, our truth and our life.” The Eucharist is the living and loving presence of Jesus Christ in our midst and our eternal friend sent from the Father. “Hail, true body, born of Mary the Virgin.” The Eucharist is the center of our devotion, the “life-blood” of the Church and the wellspring of the eternal and temporal Church. The Eucharist is the hope of the suffering Church and the apex of mankind’s hopes and greatest spiritual aspirations.
