He gave it to them.

“While they were eating, he took bread, said the blessing, broke it, gave it to them, and said, ‘Take it; this is my body.’ Then he took a cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, and they all drank from it.” (MK 14: 22-23)

Our Lord gave us His body and blood to bring us to heaven. “Whoever eats this bread will live forever.” In true giving is always the same concern—to give not only “things,” but always love, which will stay forever. Our Lord is always with us in the Tabernacles, the Holy Mass, and in our adoration chapels. He wants to bring us eternal life and perfect love.

“I am the living bread that came down from heaven, says the Lord; whoever eats this bread will live forever.” (Gospel Acclamation)
