August 12, 2018: 19th Sunday in Ordinary Time

I was at Mass at St. Teresa's to celebrate the Golden Wedding Anniversary of Dan and Ann Ruggaber.

Father Chris said something astounding in his homily:  We were made by God for not just a personal relationship with Him, but, more so, for intimacy with Him.

That is why God came to us in flesh through Christ. And He continues to be present with us in the Eucharist, so that can experience great intimacy with Him.

It is this intimacy that nourishes and strengthens us for the work He grants us as His people, to share faith with one another, to bring one another alive, as we come to truly know God's love through the ways that other people reveal that Love to us.

And so truly Jesus is the Bread of Life given in Love to bring us alive.
