His hands are now yours.

Do they cook for others, tend to the infirmed, join hands compassionately, wipe away tears?

His feet have walked through scorching gritty deserts, turned away from temptation, and walked a new path.

His feet are now yours.

Do your feet tire from aiding others, run errands for the ill or homebound, stand all day cooking for the hungry, keep going even though they hurt?

His Sacred Heart is overflowing with compassion and love.

His heart is now yours.

Does it exude joy, peace, and love, does it empathize with others, does it want to see conversion in all hearts?

His mind was neither scholarly nor immune.

He was thoughtful and precise, could outwit and educate the learned, saw the world through a different lens without biased filters and manmade precepts.

His mind is now yours.

What’s important to you? How do you perceive your day, life?

Maybe your lenses need adjusting, because once extraneous protocols are removed, you will be invaluable to those who are waiting to witness and experience your enlightened view and actions.

His speech was straightforward, no gimmicks, no falsehoods, He has always been the Truth.

His speech is now yours.

Will you speak lovingly, truthfully, kindly with a vibrance for the life our Creator endowed to you?

As St. Teresa of Avila popularly stated: Christ has no body but yours…

Tomorrow is the Feast of Corpus Christ, in honor of His Most Holy Body and Blood. Jesus has called you by name. How will you display it to the world?

~”And he took him by the right hand and raised him up, and immediately his feet and ankles were made strong,” Acts 3:7,~
