Yesterday, we celebrated the Solemnity of the Body and Blood of Christ. Do you acknowledge the Transubstantiation? Do you believe that the Holy Spirit truly comes down upon the Bread and Wine? Do you believe that every time you receive Holy Communion you receive the Graces to change your life? Do you believe that you are transformed and become Christ in the world? Change is hard. But with Jesus with us, we can do it. We can change ourselves enough to be brave to go out into the world and change it. Christ has no body now but us. Are we willing to say yes when Jesus says, "Come follow me"? It takes the grace of the gift of courage to make the decision to "Love the Lord with all your heart, mind, soul and body. It takes real strength to pick up your Cross and that of your neighbor and follow Jesus. Receive the Eucharist often. Be strengthened by the Body and Blood of Christ. Join me, as it takes a true determination in today's world to say yes to God.
We believe Lord, transform us anew. We say yes, we love you Lord, our God. We love our neighbor as ourselves. We will follow you and do our best to follow your Commandments given to us through Moses, to live out the Beatitudes given by Jesus at the Sermon on the Mount. We will give our all to live out the Spiritual and Corporal Works of Mercy. We offer our best to you, Lord. We follow you. We Go Out.
