There are two choices for this Sunday.
The earth will be satisfied by the work of your hands, O Lord, as you bring forth bread from the land and wine to gladden the heart of man; oil to make his face shine, and bread to strengthen man's heart.
It is not just ordinary produce which is promised. This is food and drink which will sustain the heart and soul of man forever.
He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood, abides in me, and I in him., says the Lord.
We again revisit a Communion from the Solemnity of Corpus Christi. The promise made here is confirmed at the Last Supper and Calvary; He gives us His Real Presence for everlasting life.
