By means of touch and the sharing of a meal, the risen Jesus establishes direct contact with his disciples...yet at the same time this authentic, real body possesses the new properties of a glorious body: not limited by space and time but able to be present how and when he wills.
- CCC No. 645
Reflection: The resurrected Jesus, as he is presented in the Gospels, defies human definition. This is not a ghost, not a dream or an apparition.
Prayer: Resurrected Christ, we acknowledge your presence among us. Remain with us always.
