Daily Prayer

 Day 7, The sacrifice of Eucharist is our Eternal Food

  The most valuable and precious act of prayer is the Holy Mass. In this prayer of sacrifice which Jesus himself made for us the greatest of all mysteries, which is the body and blood of our Lord. The sacrifice of Eucharist is our eternal food. The Eucharist itself is the Word of God which became flesh. Attending and participating in the Holy Mass is an eternal gift God promised through His New Covenant. God’s love proclaims the secrets of this mystery which is essential in our religious life. His humility and gentleness made this ultimate gift possible for us to make our body and soul capable to stay in His Heavenly Kingdom. Jesus says about this: ‘Anyone who does eat my flesh and drink my blood has eternal life, and will raise that person up on the last day. For my flesh is real food and blood is real drink.’ Jon. 6: 54-55. Jesus himself is waiting for each one of us in the Holy Eucharist; to pray along with him to pay the homage to our Heavenly Father. We can experience the love of Jesus; when we pray daily in front of the Blessed Sacrament. It is very important for the growth in our spiritual life. Those who do the Holy Hour will be strengthened in the Holy Spirit. They will be filled with the knowledge and wisdom of our Lord. 

How David adored the Ark of the Covenant which is symbolizing the Eucharist. ‘He praise God and dance in front of the Ark of The Lord, very reverently, the bearers of the ark of Yahweh had gone six paces, he sacrificed and ox and a fat sheep. And David danced whirling round before Yahweh with all his might...... Thus with war cry and blast on the horn, David and the entire house of Israel brought up the ark of Yahweh.’ 2 Sam. 6:13-14.
