Closer to us than we want him to be

Many would rather push God into the distant cosmos, the Watch Maker, the uncaring Being, the science of randomness, or the void of nothingness — the Ungrund.

The more I called them, the farther they went from me, Sacrificing to the Baals and burning incense to idols. Hosea 11:2

Truth is, God who is love, is closer to us than we want him to be. We turn away from love’s embrace because we feel the guilty of our violence against love.

This day remember that your salvation has come through Jesus Christ who comes now to you in the form of humble bread and wine. He fills us will all sweetness and makes us pleasing to the Father.

Receive the Eucharistic Jesus daily and live in true love.
