EUCHARIST IS LIKE THE RAYS OF THE SUN
Jesus in the Eucharist is like the rays of the sun
transferring His presence to us, we become what we
eat, we are meant to live it, take it out to the world
and become Eucharist to all we meet.
The urgent request of the disciples on the road to Emmaus to "ABIDE WITH US". They were at
a point of change, brokenhearted and Jesus gave them comfort. To ‘Abide' means to express
the gracious, wonderful fellowship and spiritual union between God and His people. In these
days we live in, troubled times of darkness, people who question our faith, we realize we can
do nothing without God! Nothing less than the risen Jesus will do, life without Christ is a life of
crisis. Our prayer must be, "Jesus  abide with us always"!

Pope Benedict XVI, who said that the presence of God in his word and the presence of God in
the Eucharist should never be separated. Studying the word of God sheds light and brings us
out of darkness.

Fr. John Hampsch described the gathering of believers at Mass or in community as a network
of grace, like burning coals in a brazier, creating a vibrant fire. If you separate coals, they are
easily extinguished, but all together they can ignite others, increasing prayer, healing, gifts of
the Holy Spirit and love of God. God comes down into us individually and as a group,
As we receive the sacramental presence, it is a time of immersing man with God. Jesus shares
his divine nature as he comes to us and gives us fortitude to deal with life and strength to deal
with temptations, now and in the future. Jesus inhabits his word and also dwells in the praises
of his people. Father quoted St. Augustine who said, "There is only one thing God does not
know. How He could possibly give us a gift greater than himself."

A materialistic person cannot understand the Eucharistic language. We all partake of one
bread and as the bread of life, Jesus comes inside us, takes my wrong and his right and
works all things for good. When we turn our faces to Jesus, our shadow is behind us, the
darkness cannot overshadow us, but when we turn our back on Jesus, the shadow is in front
of us, the evil, sickness, crime, are before us and we can't see the truth.

Eucharist is the medicine of immortality-divine blood transfusion. St Ephrem said "One particle
from the Eucharistic bread is able to sanctify thousands." Receiving daily Eucharist brings a
daily attitude of gratitude, which leads to beatitude of becoming more open to grace and
inspiration. Come Lord Jesus!

The closing Mass at the
Annual Orlando Diocese Catholic Charismatic Conference was
celebrated by Fr. Hampsch who encouraged us to receive Eucharist with love for all, which will
increase the blessings as we receive. Pope Paul VI said the Mass is the most perfect form of
prayer, and that Mass without communion is like a ring without a diamond.
