Nineteenth Week of Ordinary Time August 11, 2024 Year of the Most Holy Eucharist Reflection #33

“The Holy Eucharist is, then, the flower of the Incarnation, the completion of all the mysteries of the Redeemer’s life as Man. The institution of the Blessed Sacrament was the consummation of the stupendous series of God’s merciful dispensations to His fallen creatures, for Christ came ‘to seek and to save that which was lost’ by giving Himself to man. The end of His Passion, death, and glorification in our nature was that He might forever dwell in His Mystical Body, and therefore in us, members of that Mystical Body, the Church.” (John A. Kane, Transforming Your Life through the Eucharist, p.6)
