Et verbum caro factum est. And the Word became flesh. The following is an excerpt from my prayer journal.
As I sit here in adoration tonight, on the eve of Temple and Table’s fourth birthday, I reflect on my journey between food and faith. I stare at You, fully present in that humble piece of Eucharist and I’m in awe. In awe of your humility. In awe of your genius plan of salvation for us. In awe of how near to us you desire to be. In awe of how you fill our every need, from the most basic to the most complex.
And what a beautiful journey you’ve taken me on - from studying the science behind food and how it nourishes us, to being drawn into the highest truths of our faith, my faith, and how you nourish me.
Thank you, Jesus. We should start every meal with a moment of thanksgiving and begin every prayer with a grateful heart. Again, I say thank you.
+Saturari,
Amanda
