Eucharist. Let’s learn the secret of Jesus and his love during frequent communion.

Let’s talk about something. “The Jews grumbled at Jesus because he said: “I am the bread that came down from heaven,” They said: “Isn’t this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How then does he say: “I came down from heaven?!” ” (Jn 6:41-42). Jesus predicts the establishment of the Eucharist and emphasizes its importance for eternal life. The Eucharist protects us from death and gives us hope for eternal life. We all know that one day we must die. And yet, many live as if they should not die, they are not preparing to meet God – the Judge. We believe that Jesus died and rose from the dead so that our death would not be final, but that it would be a gift from God the Father so that we could “live forever”.

Jesus personally teaches us about such a death. He prepares us for it with his sacraments—especially the Eucharist and the anointing of the sick. The Holy Spirit constantly impresses upon us that under the forms of bread and wine in the Eucharist, the living, risen Christ is present. The Eucharist is Jesus himself. Jesus, who invites us to experience the drama of temporary natural life and who wants to give us eternal life. Therefore, the Church administers the sacraments in connection with the Eucharist. Jesus knows about our difficulties. Being a Christian means accepting God as your Lord. To know our God, love him and fulfill everything he asks of us. God asks to renounce every sin. Although it is difficult to live with God, it is not impossible. God himself made sure that we could have an easier life with God. That is why he instituted the sacraments and especially the Eucharist. We have to learn the approach and the fruit flowing from the Eucharist.

The priest speaks. I once went to church for a religion class. A cleaning lady ran out of the church gate and shouted: “I can’t take it anymore!” Those children are unbearable, completely ill-mannered!” And she began to tell how the children ran amok in the house of God. They were, of course, boys. Some were ringing bells at the altar steps, others with a larger bell at the door of the sacristy. Two were sitting in the confessional, others were chasing each other between the pews. , others were trying to play the organ. Suddenly the children noticed that I was coming. When I entered, they were all sitting in the pews. Only the red face and messy hair betrayed some kind of battle experience. After praying, I said to them: “Boys, it seems that you behaved inappropriately in church an hour ago. Do your parents allow you to make such noise and go crazy at home?” Embarrassed, the boys said they didn’t, especially when grandpa or grandma was sick. Not even then when a priest or other guest arrives. “You would honor your father, grandfather and guests with a calm demeanor. And don’t forget that the Lord Jesus is hidden in the Tabernacle under the form of bread. You act like you don’t believe in his presence.” The boys’ faces were contrite. I asked them, “Will you still act like that in church?” “No!” they answered regretfully. If only they would keep their word.

The Eucharist gives hope for eternal life. As we build our relationship on earth with the living Eucharistic Jesus, Jesus will not reject us at the hour of our death
