TIN MỪNG CHO NGƯỜI TRẺ: THE BODY AND BLOOD OF CHRIST


TIN MỪNG CHO NGƯỜI TRẺ: 
THE BODY AND BLOOD OF CHRIST

When Jesus went back to Heaven, He didn’t want to leave us all alone, so He gave Himself to us in the Holy Eucharist. First, He gave Himself to the Apostles at the Last Supper, and today He gives Himself to us in Holy Communion.

Normally when we eat something it gets absorbed into our body. But receiving Jesus in Holy Communion does something different. It makes us more into Jesus’ Body! It brings our soul closer to God and closer to all the other people in the Church. That’s what “Communion” means.

When we go to Communion in a state of grace, we can get so much more grace from God. Our venial (small) sins can be taken away and we can get more strength to do His will. In fact, the time that your prayers are the most powerful is right inside you. He is your closest friend and only wants what is good for you. When you go to Communion remember Who you just received and don’t forget to thank Him for coming to you!
