How great is the prayer of communion? To truly savor God? To accept Him on your tongue, to carry Him in your mouth and body? And yet so many chomp and chew as though they were eating a cracker on the run between errands. Let us not be so silly! Savor your Lord. When you take the first bite of an exquisite meal, the explosion of flavor slows your chewing and erases conversation from your mind. How much more so should our Lord Himself have this effect on you? Be present to the mystery and the miracle every Mass.
If you cannot savor something so great as God, how will you ever find life appetizing?
