"In the sacrament of the altar,
the Lord meets us, men and women created in
God’s image and likeness (cf. Genesis 1:27),
and becomes our companion along the way.
In this sacrament, the Lord truly becomes food for us,
to satisfy our hunger for truth and freedom.
Since only the truth can make us free (cf. John 8:32),
Christ becomes for us the food of truth."
Pope Benedict XVI
Sacrament of Charity, 2007
JUST AWESOME! I LOVE READING ANYTHING OUR HOLY FATHER, POPE BENEDICT XVI SAYS. MAY GOD GRANT HIM MANY MORE YEARS AS THE SHEPHERD OF HIS CHURCH. THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO JANETTE, COMING HERE EACH DAY IS REFRESHMENT FOR MY SOUL. I WOULD LIKE TO LEAVE A QUOTE BY BLESSED ELISABETH OF THE TRINITY, CARMELITE OF DIJON CARMEL IN FRANCE. "MAY THE MASTER REVEAL TO YOU HIS DIVINE PRESCENCE, IT IS SO PLEASANT AND SWEET, IT GIVES SO MUCH STRENGTH TO THE SOUL; TO BELIEVE THAT GOD LOVES US TO THE POINT OF LIVING IN US, TO BECOME THE COMPANION OF OUR EXILE, OUR CONFIDANT, OUR FRIEND AT EVERY MOMENT." I LOVE THIS QUOTE! HAVE A BEAUTIFUL AND PEACEFILLED THURSDAY! JOHN K.
