The Holy Eucharist: The Bread of Life—Christ’s Real Presence

Jesus’ life is pressed out for us from the grapes and wheat that are the fruits of the earth and our labor. But why did Jesus do this? For love of us He died on the Cross. His heart aflame with love for us. Christ’s heart and the priest’s are united as there is only one High Priest offering the sacrifice. A pure and Holy sacrifice. A perpetual institution. We come to the altar table with ourselves bare so Christ can fill us and bring us out of the darkness. We bare our souls to him, we bring our burdens to him and lay them on the altar. We persist not in our unbelief but believe it is Christ truly present in the Blessed Sacrament. The color green of the vestment that the Priest is wearing symbolizes the life and nourishment that the Eucharist feeds our souls with. “In this great sacrament you feed your people and strengthen them in holiness, so that the family of mankind may come to walk in the light of one faith, in one communion of love. We come then to this wonderful sacrament to be fed at your table and grow into the likeness of the Risen Christ. Earth unites with heaven to sing the new song of creation as we adore and praise you forever” (Missal).
