Communion and Unity in the Body of Christ.

*MEDITATION*
*““There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called in one hope of your calling; one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.”
— (Ephesians 4:4–6)*
*🎈🌾Eucharist - A Call to Communion*
The Eucharist is not only a personal encounter with Christ it is a communal act that binds us together as one Body. When we receive the same Body of Christ, we are united more deeply not only to Jesus, but also to one another. This divine communion transcends cultures, languages, and divisions.
Yet, how often do we come to the altar with hearts divided from our brothers and sisters? The Eucharist challenges us to lay down pride, resentment, and indifference, and to seek reconciliation, inclusion, and solidarity.
Just as the bread is made from many grains and the wine from many grapes, so too are we many, but called to become one in Christ. In every Mass, heaven and earth unite. Let that unity flow into the Church and the world.
*In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.*
*Act of Contrition*
My God, I am sorry for my sins with all my heart. In choosing to do wrong and failing to do good, I have sinned against you whom I should love above all things. I firmly intend, with your help, to do penance, to sin no more, and to avoid whatever leads me to sin. Our Savior Jesus Christ suffered and died for us. In his name, my God, have mercy.Amen
*Come Holy Spirit*
Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful and kindle in them the fire of your love. Send forth your Spirit and they shall be created. And You shall renew the face of the earth.
O, God, who by the light of the Holy Spirit, did instruct the hearts of the faithful, grant that by the same Holy Spirit we may be truly wise and ever enjoy His consolations, Through Christ Our Lord, Amen.
*The Lord's Prayer*
Our Father, Who art in heaven,
Hallowed be Thy Name.
Thy Kingdom come.
Thy Will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil. Amen.
*Hail Mary*
Hail Mary, full of grace. The Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
*OPENING PRAYER*
Heavenly Father, deepen our understanding of the Eucharist as the fulfillment of your Word. May we always approach the Eucharist with awe and reverence, knowing that in it, we encounter your living presence. Amen.
*DAY 7 - CORPUS CHRISTI NOVENA*
O Jesus, Bread of Life,
we come before You with hearts full of Thanksgiving, drawn to Your altar where love is poured out and lives are renewed.
You gave Yourself to us in the Most Holy Eucharist, not as a symbol, but as Your very Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity. We adore You, O Sacramental Lord, hidden yet fully present, silent yet speaking to the depths of our hearts.
Lord, in this novena journey, awaken in us a profound reverence for Your Eucharistic Presence. Teach us to live in holy communion with You, not only in the Sacrament but in every moment of our lives. May our worship rise from grateful hearts, and may our thanksgiving become a way of life.
Cleanse us, Lord, of all that keeps us from You. Unite us as one Body healed, forgiven, and made whole by Your love.
Help us to recognize You in the breaking of bread, in the faces of the poor, the lonely, and the wounded. May Your Eucharist transform us into instruments of peace, justice, and mercy in a world so in need of Your presence.
*_🌿 [Pause here and silently present your personal intentions...]_*
Lord Jesus,
You gave Yourself entirely for us may we give ourselves entirely to You. Inflame our hearts with Eucharistic love. Help us to never take Your Sacrifice for granted, but to live each day as grateful disciples, witnesses of Your Real Presence in our words, deeds, and relationships.
Mother Mary, teach us to ponder, to receive, and to adore as you did so perfectly at the foot of the Cross and at the altar of life. May your intercession strengthen us in this novena and draw us ever deeper into the mystery of Christ’s love.
Jesus, in the Most Holy Eucharist, we trust in You. Jesus, in the Most Holy Eucharist, we believe in You. Jesus, in the Most Holy Eucharist, we love You. Amen.
*🛐 Make Us One, O Eucharistic Lord*
Lord Jesus,
You are the Bread of Life, broken that we may be one. You prayed that we might all be one as You are one with the Father. Let that unity begin in me.
Heal the wounds of division in Your Body, the Church. Mend broken relationships, restore trust, and renew a spirit of communion among all believers. Where there is bitterness, plant mercy. Where there is pride, sow humility. Where there is misunderstanding, breathe peace.
May the grace of every Eucharist I receive make me an instrument of unity. Let me build bridges, not walls. Let me seek understanding, not judgment. Let me speak with love, not anger.
Teach us to live the mystery we receive.
That in partaking of Your Body,
we may become one Body healed, whole, and holy.
Lord, make us one, one people, one Church, one family. Unite the hearts of all who call on Your name. Let the world know we are Yours by our love. Let our communion at the altar be reflected in how we live and love one another each day.
Through the intercession of Mary, Mother of the Church and Queen of Peace, bring unity where there is division, and let Your Church shine with the beauty of Your oneness. Amen.
