CQOD: 08/21/06 -- Hooker: the real presence

Christian Quotation of the Day

August 21, 2006Meditation:
    Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of profaning the body and blood of the Lord. Let a person examine himself, then, and so eat of the bread and drink of the cup. For anyone who eats and drinks without discerning the body eats and drinks judgment on himself. That is why many of you are weak and ill, and some have died.
    -- 1 Corinthians 11:27-30 (ESV)

Quotation:
    The real presence of Christ’s most precious Body and Blood is not to be sought for in the Sacrament, but in the worthy receiver of the Sacrament.
    ... Richard Hooker (1554?-1600)

---

Quiet time reflection:
    Lord, break open my heart to receive Your grace.
