The proper benefit of Holy Eucharist

Charity, however, is the virtue which is more especially nourished by the Holy Eucharist. This may be called, by eminence, the proper effect of this Sacrament, as indeed it is of the Incarnation itself. “I am come to cast fire on the earth, and what will I but that it be kindled!” (Luke 12:49) And St. Dionysius the Areopagite says that” Jesus Christ in the most Holy Eucharist is a fire of charity.” It could not be otherwise. As a burning house sets the adjacent ones on fire, so the Heart of Jesus Christ, which is always burning with love, communicates the flames of charity to those who receive Him in Holy Communion. Accordingly, St. Mary Magdalen de Pazzi, St. Catherine of Siena, St. Teresa, St. Philip Neri, St. Francis Xavier and thousands of others, by their frequent Communions, became, as it were, furnaces of divine love.

Why Jesus gave us the Eucharist ?

Ah, Christian soul, there was no other motive than love, the great, the excessive love of Jesus Christ towards men! Yes, it was love, love alone, nothing but love, which induced Jesus, our Redeemer, to remain among us in the Blessed Sacrament. O Jesus, O most sweet Jesus, hidden under the sacramental species, give me now such love and humility, that I may be able lovingly to speak of this invention of boundless love, that all who hear of it, may begin to love Thee in reality.
O Mary, Mother of Jesus Christ, and our dear Mother; O all ye holy Angels, who, by your adoration in our churches, make up for the little love which your God and our Saviour receives from men, obtain for us the grace to comprehend a little the love of Jesus Christ in the most Holy Sacrament.

In order to conceive in some measure the love of Jesus Christ in this wonderful Sacrament, let us consider first the time at which He gave Himself to us as our food and drink. Jesus might have instituted this Sacrament when, in the twelfth year of His age, He traveled to Jerusalem, or at the wedding in Cana, or when He was thirty years old and began to teach publicly, or He might have instituted it after His Resurrection. But He chose, for the time of its institution, the last moment of His earthly career.

Why did He wait so long? Why did He not institute it sooner or later? Why not after His Resurrection? Why just at the moment when He was about to take leave of the Apostles and quit the earth? He instituted this Sacrament at the last moment of His life in order that men might the better see the excess of His love. Do you ask how this is? To make it clearer, imagine a father who has in store costly presents of gold and jewels which he intends to give to his children in order to show them how much he loves them. What time do you think this father will choose for bestowing these gifts as being best calculated to make a deep impression on them? He will wait until he is on his deathbed, and then he will give them, that they may be the last memorials of his love.

Well, Christian spirit, there was just love—the immense, excessive love that Jesus Christ had for people! Certainly, Jesus, our Redeemer, chose to stay with us in the Holy Sacrament because of love—love and nothing else. Give me the love and humility, O Jesus, O most precious Jesus, who is concealed behind the sacramental species, so that I might speak passionately of this invention of limitless love and so that everyone who hears about it may come to truly adore Thee.

Obtain for us the grace to partially understand the love of Jesus Christ in the Most Holy Sacrament, O Mary, Mother of Jesus Christ and our Dear Mother; O all ye holy Angels who, by your worship in our churches, make up for the little love which your God and our Saviour receives from men.

Let’s first think about the moment when Jesus Christ gave Himself to us as our food and drink in order to begin to understand the love of Jesus Christ in this great Sacrament. When Jesus traveled to Jerusalem in His twelfth year of age, or at the wedding in Cana, or when He was thirty and started giving public lessons, or even after His resurrection, He may have established this sacrament. But He choose the very last second of His earthly life to establish it.

Why did He take so much time? Why didn’t He implement it earlier or later? Considering His Resurrection, why not? Why right before He was ready to depart from earth and say goodbye to the Apostles? At the very end of His life, Jesus established this Sacrament so that men could more clearly see the depth of His love. Do you inquire as to why? To further understand, think of a father who is planning to show his children how much he cares for them by giving them expensive gifts made of gold and gems. What time do you think this parent would decide to give children these gifts so that it will have the greatest impact? In order for them to serve as the final mementos of his love, he will wait until he is on his deathbed before giving them.

Look, even our Heavenly Lord thought and behaved in the same way. He thought, I have already given men so many proofs of My love towards them: I have created them; I preserve their lives; I have become man—-for their sake I became a child; I have lived among them for more than thirty years; I am yet to suffer and die for them on the Cross and to re-open Heaven for them; what can I do more for them? Ah! In order to prevent them from accusing me of doing less for them than I should have, I can make them one more present. I will offer them a priceless gift and all of my resources. As a legacy, I will give them Myself—My Divinity and My Humanity, My Body and My Soul—wholly and unconditionally. At the end of My life, when men typically leave the things they cherish most to the people they care about, I will give them this present.

How come Jesus offered us the Eucharist? Well, Christian spirit, there was just love—the immense, excessive love that Jesus Christ had for people! Certainly, Jesus, our Redeemer, chose to stay with us in the Holy Sacrament because of love—love and nothing else. Give me the love and humility, O J...
