1 Corinthians
11:23-26. John 6:51-58
Since time began the Father has
poured life into His creation and
to the sons of men whom He created
in His image He gave light and truth
that they might grow and prosper
in His world and respond to Him
in love and in self-giving and to
each other in constructive action
and relationship.
In time that life and light and
truth entered the human world. I,
His Son beloved and loving, His
Word Incarnate and Incarnate Love
through My life and death and risen
life brought the Father’s
cosmic undertaking to its fulness.
In the sacrament of My Presence
this is shown and given and shared
and becomes the light and life and
truth in the faithful who receive
it. All such are growing in eternal
life. Consider these things, beloved
of Me and of the Father, and grow
in the life and light and truth
of them.
