Consider how our God chose to save us. He could have redeemed us by simply willing it, but He chose to become one of us. He chose to take upon Himself our human nature. Since God created man in His own image, He did not consider it beneath Himself to dwell in the flesh. We must therefore always remember our great dignity as Christians. We must always strive to embrace the virtue of humility because our God by His very nature is humble.
If we consider how God chose to become one of us-to live, work, sleep, eat, suffer and die as a human being, we should be filled with the deepest gratitude. But God didn't stop there. He continues to humble Himself by making Himself present in the Eucharist. Do we take advantage of this great gift? Do we receive the Eucharist frequently and with sincere devotion? Do we make Eucharistic Adoration a regular part of our lives?
God invites us. God gives us the gift of Himself. Do we make use of this incomparable gift?
Sincerely in Christ,
Rev. Jeffery A. Fasching
