Do not fear, for I have redeemed you;
I have called you by name:
You are mine.
You are precious in my eyes
And honored, and I love you.

It is absolutely crazy to believe that the God of the universe has given us the presence of Jesus in something so simple and ordinary as a piece of bread. Sometimes we go out looking for something extraordinary to happen, so we can "find God." But all too often God makes Himself known to us through very ordinary things. We don't have to go out searching. God's presence can be found in all things at all times. It seems like we're always praying for a miracle in this situation or that situation, but isn't it a miracle today right now that you and I can take a breath? Isn't it a miracle that we can walk and talk and smile and say hello? Aren't we all living breathing miracles? Call me crazy, but I believe that although under the appearance of bread, this host is substantially Jesus. I believe that God makes Himself available to us here on earth in the Eucharist. I believe that when I walk into the adoration chapel, I am looking at Jesus in the flesh. I believe that when I receive the Eucharist during mass, I am receiving the Body of Jesus Christ. I believe that by His grace and His gift of Himself, He will one day welcome me into Heaven to live in absolute perfect joy forever
