Scripture, Reflection and Prayer for Monday, August 17, 2009

This is My Blood of the Covenant, which will be shed in behalf of many for the forgiveness of sins.
- Mt 26:28

Reflection: The Eucharist may be termed a perpetual Calvary. Without it how many times God's wrath would have erupted on our heads!
- St. Peter Eymard

Prayer: Heavenly Father, make me realize that the Eucharist is the memorial of Christ's actions that freed me of my sins. Help me to participate devoutly in every Eucharist and obtain the grace to avoid sin.
