***Obedience Foremost***

        At the Last Supper and each Mass today, Jesus offers us his own body and blood and asks us to partake of them. And we do just that in obedience to him. It strikes me that we should obey him in all the other things he tells us to do as well. In fact, we should have done that first in order that we may fully deserve receiving him in the Holy Eucharist. Then since the Eucharist can absolutely help us grow to be holy and obedient, let us proceed by resolving to be obedient and receiving him at Mass simultaneously.
