To me, the Eucharist means that Jesus has given us His Heart. When I receive Him in the Eucharist, His heart truly beats in my body and brings me life. Jesus’ real presence in the Eucharist is proof of His tender care and mercy that cannot be outmatched. I think it’s amazing that my Lord and Savior wants to be closer to me than I am to myself!
Growing up, I never thought much about the Eucharist or what it truly meant for my soul, but by the grace and love of God, that has since changed. The Eucharist is what makes my soul alive, and it has transformed the way I live and who I am because it is Christ Himself living in me. This mystery is endless, much like God's love- the Eucharist's very substance.
