The Church, especially during Advent and Lent and above all during the Easter Vigil, re-reads and re-lives he great events of salvation history in the "today" of her liturgy.Reflection: The liturgy celebrates God's saving activity of the past, which is essentially the same as his present behavior. God is always/still saving mankind and intervening in history. In the liturgical celebration, past and present meet in God's ever-present "today."
- CCC No. 1095
Prayer: Father, your love is unchanging and your faithfulness never fails. Accept our praise this day.
