The Simplicity of the Eucharist
At adoration this morning, while reading Aquinas' Summa Theologica, I had this thought. Aquinas and Dante both showed how God is perfectly simple. He is not composite, but one.
Isn't the Eucharist a perfect symbol of this? So when Jesus becomes bread & wine, wouldn't this carry symbology too?
I want to be clear: the Eucharist is not a symbol of Jesus, it is Jesus. But
that he becomes bread is meant to teach us of God's ultimate simplicity.
