The Real Presence is Real

Do we truly believe that the Eucharist is the real presence of Jesus? Today, Dr. Sri reminds us that the God of the universe is dwelling among us in all the tabernacles of the world. He encourages to live a Eucharistic faith so that we may draw near to Jesus who longs to be close to us.



Snippet of the Show

The Jesus who walked the streets of Galilee giving sight to the blind, raising the dead, and making the paralyzed walk, is the same Jesus who is present to you in the Eucharist longing to work miracles in your life.


Shownotes

As Catholics, we believe that Jesus is truly present in the Eucharist- Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity. However, do we really live like this is a reality? Do we drop everything to see him and spend time with Jesus? Jesus dwells in all the tabernacles of the world and he longs to be near to us. He desires to heal all our wounds and transform us deeply. 

“Everyone understands that the crown of thorns is an absolutely unique and extraordinary relic, but the Blessed sacrament is our Lord, really present in his body, soul, divinity and humanity, and you understand that it’s hard to see someone you love perish in the blaze. As firefighters, we often see casualties from fire and we know its effects this is why I sought to preserve above all the real presence of our Lord Jesus Christ.”– Notre Dame Priest
