The food that endures for eternal life...
May 5, 2025
Dear Family of Mary!
Today
in our Gospel reading for Mass, we begin the Bread of Heaven discourse
from John's Gospel. Jesus teaches us the incredible mystery of His Body
and Blood, given to us as our very food from Heaven. Jesus begins with
these simple words:
"Do
not work for food that perishes but for the food that endures for
eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on him the Father,
God, has set his seal." (John 6:28)
This food that endures for eternal life, the
Eucharist, is given to us by Jesus, directly through the hands of His
priests. We are fed personally by Jesus with each Holy Communion. It is
unbelievable!!
Our Lady has drawn us to the Eucharist so gently and
convincingly throughout the years in her messages. Here is one such
message:
June 2, 2012
"Dear
children, I am continuously among you because, with my endless love, I
desire to show you the door of Heaven. I desire to tell you how it is
opened: through goodness, mercy, love and peace - through my Son.
Therefore,
my children, do not waste time on vanities. Only knowledge of the love
of my Son can save you. Through that salvific love and the Holy Spirit
He chose me and I, together with Him, am choosing you to be apostles of
His love and will.
My
children, great is the responsibility upon you. I desire that by your
example you help sinners regain their sight, enrich their poor souls and
bring them back into my embrace.
Therefore,
pray, pray, fast and confess regularly. If receiving my Son in the
Eucharist is the center of your life then do not be afraid, you can do
everything.
I
am with you. Every day I pray for the shepherds and I expect the same
of you. Because, my children, without their guidance and strengthening
through their blessing, you cannot do it. Thank you."
May we receive Jesus in the Eucharist as the center of our lives!! Because He is!!!
In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
