During the meal, Jesus took and blessed the bread, broke it and gave it to his disciples: "Take, eat. This is my body."
Taking the cup and thanking God he gave it to them:
'Drink this, all of you. This is my blood,
God's new covenant poured out for many people for the forgiveness of sins. I'll not be drinking wine from this cup again until that new day when I'll drink with you in the kingdom of my Father."

Matt, 26:-29

Behold, each day he humbles himself as when he came from the royal throne into the Virgin's womb; each day he himself comes to us, appearing humbly; each day he comes down from the bosom of the Father, upon the altar, in the hands of a priest.
As he revealed himself to the holy apostles in true flesh, so he reveals himself to us now in sacred bread. And as they saw only his flesh by an insight of their flesh, yet believed that He was God as they contemplated him with their spiritual eyes, let us, as we see bread and wine with our bodily eyes, see and firmly believe that they are his most holy body and blood, living and true. And in this way the Lord is always with his faithful, as he himself says: Behold I am with you until the end of the age.

Admonitions 1.

Place your mind before the mirror of eternity!
Place your soul in the brilliance of glory!
Place your heart in the figure of the divine substance!
and transform your entire being into the image
of the Godhead itself through contemplation.

So that you too may feel what his friends feel
as they taste the hidden sweetness
that God himself has reserved from the beginning
for those who love him.
