“Our dear Lord said: “My flesh is truly food, and my blood is truly drink; whoever feeds on me remains in me, and I in him.” It was enough that he should become man so that man might become God. He even wanted to be our food as well.”
— Father John Tauler, O.P.
Lord Jesus
much of what I eat is not good for me
The food I choose to consume
Does damage to my gut, my heart, my mind
I eat and drink the things of this world
That cause me to crave more
That is not you
Only you can satisfy my hunger
Only you can satiate my thirst
You invite me to this table
Unworthy as I am
I eat your flesh, drink your blood
Not just good for me
Goodness itself
— Brother Antony Joseph
