I went to Mass today and I usually try to hold one thought in my head as I go up to receive our Precious Lord. I do this because if I don't I start to let my mind wander to the other people around me. My thought this time was that I was that I was looking into the face of Jesus. As the Body of Christ started to dissolve in my mouth I walk to the chalice and as I said, "Amen." The chaliced tipped, I could look directly into the Blood and realized that staring back at me was myself, reflecting off the bottom of the chalice.
As I knelt down to pray I contemplated this and realize what better thing to see then my own face at the bottom? Should I not be immersed in the Blood of Christ, surrounded in it?
