(Columnist's Note: It is of utmost importance for us as Christians to always have a discerning spirit regarding the secular media's coverage on Catholic Church events, because most often the reporting is done out of context. Let us be attentive in going to the source and reading first hand the Holy Father's words [or whatever is being reported on].) 

“Who is she that comes forth as the morning rising, fair as the moon, bright as the sun, terrible as an army set in battle array?” (Song 6:10).

Few Catholics have discovered the “pearl of great price” that is buried in the rich field of our Catholic faith, and gone to sell all that we have to “buy it” (Mat 13:45-46). Few have come to discover personally the truth expressed in Vatican II that “the Eucharist is the Source and Summit of the whole Christian life.” Yes, to varied degrees we may go to Mass on Sunday, and even possibly weekdays.  But have we really put our heart into a personal relationship with our Divine Eucharistic Lord, in a way that we have come to share our hearts with Him intimately, and have come to know His Heart intimately as well?
