Today we reflect on our covenant with God.

Thursday, 8/9/18

Jeremiah spoke of the new covenant that God wanted to enter into us, and Jesus, giving us the cup at the Last Supper, told us this was the beginning of the new covenant.

A covenant is a special contract in which the parties exchange not only money and possessions. No, they  exchange their very selves.

The Old Covenant at Sinai was enacted by the sprinkling of blood not only on the people, but also on Cod's altar, so that the same blood flowed through them all, At  Mass we are united by having the blood of Christ flow through us all.
