This Sunday is The Solemnity of The Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ also known as the Solemnity of Corpus Christi. This feast day is a special opportunity to worship the Lord Jesus and commemorate Christ’s gift of himself truly present in the Eucharist. The Eucharist is the source and summit of our Catholic Christian life, and the grace and divine life that Jesus gives leads to ever greater holiness and joy in this life and eternal salvation in the next.
Be inspired by an excerpt from a letter that St. Francis wrote to his Order.
“Let everyone be struck with fear, the whole world tremble, and the heavens exult when Christ, the Son of the living God, is present on the altar in the hands of a priest! O wonderful loftiness and stupendous dignity! O sublime humility! O humble sublimity! The Lord of the universe, God and the Son of God, so humbles Himself that He hides Himself for our salvation under an ordinary piece of bread! See the humility of God, brothers, and pour out your hearts before Him! Humble yourselves that you may be exalted by Him! Hold back nothing of yourselves for yourselves, that He Who gives Himself totally to you may receive you totally!”
(Writings of St Francis).
Un mensaje del p. Carlos
LA EUCARISTIA NO TERMINA EN EL TEMPLO, CONTINUA CON NOSOTROS
La forma más frecuente de contacto con la Iglesia es, para casi todos los católicos, la Misa Dominical. Es bueno preguntarnos hoy: ¿Por qué estamos aquí? ¿Qué estamos haciendo? ¿Por qué ha de ser la eucaristía la que nos una como comunidad? --- Porque la eucaristía es el Señor mismo. La eucaristía nos asegura a nosotros, creyentes, que el Señor está aquí, que él se hace presente no sólo en el Santísimo Sacramento, sino en cada uno de nosotros y en nuestras comunidades. Él nos garantiza, a los que creemos en él, que él va caminando con nosotros como nuestro compañero en la vida. Más todavía, él nos muestra en la eucaristía cómo vivir como él, darnos a nosotros mismos con él. ¿Cómo rompernos como él, los unos para los otros, y cómo dar gracias a Dios, y a cada uno de nosotros también.
La festividad del Corpus Christi, no obstante, nos hace colocar en el centro de la atención de este día el Misterio de la Eucaristía: el Cuerpo y la Sangre del Señor. En jueves Santo, Jesús, se nos dio y nos mandó perpetuar este Misterio. ¿Qué hemos hecho de él? ¿Rutina o vida? ¿Obligación o necesidad? ¿Encuentro o rito? La misericordia de Dios se expresa especialmente, y visceralmente, en la Eucaristía. Es
donde caemos en la cuenta de los quilates del amor de Dios. ¿Qué Padre es capaz de ofrecer a su único para y por salvar a alguien? Dar la vida por los demás por unas horas, por un mes o por un año…resulta fácil. ¿Y darnos totalmente? ¿O entregarnos en cuerpo y alma? ¿Y dejarnos clavar, insultar, lacerar o escupir por la salvación de los demás? El “Tomen y coman” y “Tomen y beban” llena nuestras entrañas y nuestras venas del mismo Cuerpo y Sangre de Cristo y, cuando así lo creemos y sentimos, vemos que nuestros cuerpos y nuestra sangre se mueven y se desviven por lo mismo que conmovió a Jesucristo: la gloria de Dios y el bienestar de los hermanos. No es lógico, por lo tanto, en este día del Corpus Christi, acentuar exclusivamente el dolor de los cuerpos de los hermanos (aunque tengamos que salir en su auxilio). Hoy, especialmente hoy, clavamos nuestros ojos en el Cuerpo de Cristo, saboreamos su Sangre redentora para que, luego, nos infunda su valor, su valentía y su radicalidad para luchar lo que haga falta, donde haga falta para que, nuestra misericordia, sea humana y divina, constante y sin tacha, alegre y virtuosa, respetuosa y humilde, silenciosa e ilimitada. ¿Cómo? Con el Sacramento de la Eucaristía. Amemos y Vivamos la Eucaristía, siempre. Paz y Bien
