    About this ebook

    It's hard to live to be the precious Body and Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ in our world. One important way that we can be Eucharist in the world is by taking conscious actions every day to live as disciples of Christ. As Christians, the Bible tells us that there are certain concrete actions that we must take every day to please God and to live a holy life. The faith we, as disciples, have in our hearts should be displayed in the way we think, talk, act, and live. This is because the beatitudes are the foundation of our faith.

    Before we consider how to live the Eucharist in our daily lives, let’s reflect on what can make us loyal disciples of Christ for a few moments. A disciple is a person who first admits he is a sinner before God and realizes that he has no hope of getting to heaven by his own efforts. This awareness can inspire us to really want to live the best imaginable life (s)he can so that we can gain our eternal reward.

    Not too many Christians talk about how to live the Eucharist in our troubled world. It's like we feel we aren’t equipped to do so because we are mediocre Christians. All the many things we should do in order to live with humility and love baffle us. Yet living the Eucharist is an important way to live a Christian life that is praiseworthy to God. This should be our purpose as Christians if we really want to live our faith.
