All Of Me
When I say that I have God within me, I mean, the Presence, the Spirit. We Catholics believe that God added a human body to this Spirit that we all have. But when I sit with God or pray to God, I don't have this body. Part of God is missing, the body part. When I receive the host, called the Eucharist, or Holy Communion, I get all of God. The Eucharist is the way that God can give everything of God. I have a body too. Do I give everything to God? To be honest, I hold back even though God gives all. But honesty is a start. It keeps me in reality. To say that I give God my all, when I don't, is to be out of touch. Every time I receive the host, I can ask myself how much of me does God get back? I would rather not wait until death to give God my all. Could be a bit late.
