“O Lord, how clear, how precise, how strong, how powerful are Your
words. Hardly are the words
pronounced: ‘Woman, you are cured’ – and she is cured
immediately. ‘This is My Body’ – and it is His
Body. ‘This is My Blood’ – and it is His
Blood.
Who can speak in that manner if not the One Who holds everything
in His hand? Who can be trusted if not the One for Whom doing and
speaking are one and the same thing?
My soul, accept these words without reservation: believe as firmly as the Lord spoke. Believe with as much humility as He shows
authority and power. The Lord wants to find in your faith the same simplicity
which He put in His words.”
