We are not just an outward tent in which Christ dwells; the Sacrament is far more dynamic than that. It changes us on the inside, turning us progressively into the image and likeness of Christ, actually incorporating us into Him – as the term Holy Communion implies, it makes us one with Him.
Our Christian journey is a progressive growth into this oneness with Christ; a mystery that will only become fully evident at our journey’s end when this Sacrament will have done its work and we see the Lord face to face.
Then, we shall fall down before Him, giving thanks for the Holy Mass in our lives, for his saving Pascal Mystery which it constantly made present for us, and for everything else this great Sacrament meant to us and achieved in us.
