TODAY’S WORD…

.

God’s message…

which was a mystery hidden for generations and centuries…

is Christ among you, your hope of glory;

this is the Christ we proclaim.

.

– Colossians 1:25-27 (TJB)

.

.

.

REFLECTION…

.

In Christ, the “mystery” is fully revealed.

.

In His infinite love,

Christ lives in us through faith and grace,

through prayer and the Sacraments.

.

Jesus promised us,

“Where two or three are gathered in My Name,

there am I in the midst of them” (Mat 18:20)

.

.

.

QUOTE…

.

“In a special way,

Christ stays with us in the daily offering of the Blessed Eucharist […].

The presence of Christ in the host is the guarantee,

the source and the culmination of His presence in the world.

.

“Christ is alive in Christians”.

Our faith teaches that man, in the state of grace, is divinized – filled with God.

We are men and women, not angels.

We are flesh and blood,

people with sentiments and passions,

with sorrows and joys.

And this divinization affects everything human;

it is a sort of foretaste of the final resurrection”

.

– St. Josemaria Escriva

REPETITIVE PRAYER FOR TODAY…

.

Come, Lord Jesus, my Lord, my hope,

and live in me.
