ALL FOR US

Celebrating a God who is all for us

Solemnity of the Body and Blood of Christ
18th June, 2017 : Dt 8:2-3,14-16; 1Cor 10: 16-17; Jn 6: 51-58

We celebrate today a God who is all for us - it is neither an empty phrase nor an exaggeration. God is for us in everyway and if God is for us, who can be against us. 

Why does God choose to be the food - to nurture us, nourish us and strengthen us in our daily living.

Why does the Lord choose to give His flesh - to become part of our flesh, to be so incorporated in us to make us feel alive.

Why does God do all these for us - because the love of the Lord is immense and unconditional, exceeding all limits and boundaries.

What is the call: to nurture each other's faith, to be part of each other's lives, to be worthy children of that unfathomable love of God!
