Prayers & Reflections for February 22

The Armor of God
Reflections and Prayers for Wartime

CHAPTER VII
The Eucharist


...I care not if the species remain, or that, like the bread and the wine I seem to all earthly eyes the same as before.

My station in life, my routine duties, my work, my family - all these are but the species of my life which may remain unchanged; but the substance of my life, my soul, my mind, my will, my heart - "transubstantiate," transform them wholly into Thy service, so that through me all may know how sweet is the love of Christ. Amen.
