I like the way God answers me. Yesterday at the Holy Eucharist since it is Corpus Christi the topic is about the body and blood of Christ. Father Frederick has been discussing about blood of the animals being offered before and how in the New Testament the blood of Christ has been offered and it is the last offering since it is the perfect offering. It was quite sometime that I felt why God has been accepting blood as sacrifice. Before Father Frederick says the reason it came to me that blood is life. In fact I'm a volunteer of Red Cross where blood is the main service of the organization how can I missed this! And so Father says blood means life, a new life is given to us. I was also moved when he says that every breaking of the bread we do in the Eucharist is a commemoration of the Last Supper. That is we let Jesus come again, to be present with us. I felt so privileged and blessed to be a Catholic especially to receive Holy Communion where I received Him and run into my veins. Thank you Lord for your affirmations. Thank you simply for just being with me.
