The Mystery of Faith

January 23, 2021

I am not in an audience with our Holy Father, nor am I in the presence of a saint from heaven, nor with some distinguished personality. Before me, dear Jesus, You are present under the frail appearance of the host. With the eyes of faith I believe that You are present as my God, my Lord, my Redeemer, the Creator of heaven and earth, my all. I believe, dear Jesus, that You are truly present, body and blood, soul and divinity, in the most Blessed Sacrament.

When Christ appeared to His apostles on the Sea of Galilee after His resurrection, St. John recognized Him and said: “It is the Lord” (Jn 21:7). I will ask, dear Jesus, for the grace to appreciate Your presence, saying: “It is the Lord,” and in the words of St. Peter add: “Thou art Christ, the son of the living God” (Mt 15:17).
