Jesus said: “My people, ‘I am the Bread of Life. If anyone eats of this Bread, he shall live forever; and the Bread that I will give is My Flesh for the life of the world.’ (Jn 6:48-52) You are seeing a thread of how important My Eucharistic Bread is in today’s readings. The first sign is the manna that I rained down on Moses’ people in the desert. The second sign is the multiplication of the loaves and fish that I gave to the 5,000 men and later to the 4,000 men. The third sign is My Blessed Sacrament that I have given you in the first Mass at the Last Supper. My consecrated Host is given to you now at every Mass, and you receive My Real Presence when you receive Me worthily in Holy Communion. Treasure My intimate Presence with you every time you receive Me worthily in Holy Communion. This is My gift of My very Self to you at every Mass.”

The Holy Spirit said: “I am the Spirit of love that unites the Father and the Son. When you call on Me, I will give you the graces to speak the words to the people for converting them. I help give the words also in writing your messages for the people. You can pray to Me when you pray the ‘Glory Be’ prayer. This is why the Lord asked you to pray the 24 Glory Be prayers to St. Therese, because you are invoking My Name in each prayer. When you go out to your talks, you have been asked to pray the long form of the St. Michael prayer, and to pray the 24 ‘Glory Be’ prayers to St. Therese. This will be your protection from the evil ones, and a help in your driving to your destination safely. Be prepared to share your messages from Jesus as you instruct the people.”
