SUNDAY REFLECTION: THE CHALICE, THE HOST, AND THE PEACE I FOUND TODAY.
Today is Sunday....yeah A special day.
As you can see in this picture, there is the Bible.... There is the rosary... There is the golden chalice.... And on top of the chalice, there is the Holy Communion, the host..
Many people see it as ordinary bread....I know right? But it is not.
That small round white host is everything. It is the Body of Christ. The IHS you see written on it means Jesus. It is Jesus Himself present on the altar.....✝️
The chalice that holds it is not just a cup. . It is the cup that holds the Blood of Christ.... It reminds us of the Last Supper, where Jesus gave His life for us...He died gor our sins.
And behind, you can see the open Bible. The Word of God. The Word becomes flesh in that host. What we read in the Bible, we see live on the altar.
The rosary beside it shows our mother Mary. She was there at the foot of the cross. She connects us to her Son....she interceds for us.
Why is this important today being Sunday?....... Because Sunday is the day of resurrection. The day we go to meet Jesus face to face in Communion.
When the priest raises that host, heaven comes down....... Our worries, our hustle, our sins, all meet mercy.
I received Communion today and I felt new...❤️🩹🥹🔥 Not because I am perfect, but because He is perfect.
