Participating in the Mass
by receiving the Eucharist
is the most sacred ritual in Christianity,
Because it is the body, blood, soul, and divinity of Jesus Christ himself.
It is the living bread
that has come down from heaven
to give life to the world.
The Israelites ate manna in the desert,
but we have the Eucharist which gives eternal life.
The Eucharist is the power of Christ and the presence of Christ.
It is him condensed under the appearance of bread and wine.
Christ gave it in love for his church.
Amen
i love the embroidery
ReplyDeleteA wonderful description of the Eucharist combining definition, history, and symbolism. Your embroidery does the subject proud too.
