The Real Thing

Taste and see that the Lord is good.
--Ps 34:8

Today today we celebrate the feast of Corpus Christi--the body and blood of Christ. Catholics believe that the bread and water offered at mass do not represent symbols. They are transformed into Christ's real presence.

As such, nothing should get in the way of receiving it. Not travel, sports, or other distraction. 

What could be more important than receiving Jesus himself?
