St. George
Philip said to him, "Master, show us the Father, and that will be enough for us." Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you for so long a time and you still do not know me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'? Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I speak to you I do not speak on my own. The Father who dwells in me is doing his works” (John 14: 8-10).
We can be like Philip at times. We go to Mass, have Christ in the Blessed Sacrament and yet we still do not believe that Christ loves us and listens to us. The closer we are to Christ in the Blessed Sacrament with a vibrant faith the stronger we will be.
Holy Spirit, enlighten me so I will understand how close I am to Christ in the Eucharist.
