The Gospel of May 1st of 2020 according to Saint John Chapter 6 Verse 52 to 59 (60) - Easter Weekday - Joseph the Worker
52.If anyone eats from this bread, he shall live in eternity. And the bread that I will give is my flesh, for the life of the world.” 53.Therefore, the Jews debated among themselves, saying, “How can this man give us his flesh to eat?” 54.And so, Jesus said to them: “Amen, amen, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood, you will not have life in you. 55.Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day. 56.For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink. 57.Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood abides in me, and I in him. 58.Just as the living Father has sent me and I live because of the Father, so also whoever eats me, the same shall live because of me. 59.This is the bread that descends from heaven. It is not like the manna that your fathers ate, for they died. Whoever eats this bread shall live forever. 60.He said these things when he was teaching in the synagogue at Capernaum.

Highlights
In the Hebrew language, the words flesh and blood had the meaning of a complete person; it was a usual expression of that time and land. Have flesh and blood of Jesus is to be entirely with him.
Flesh and blood are with us today in the Eucharist when we have the bread and the wine, as Christ taught the Apostles. At the Catholic Church, the bread and the wine consecrated at Mass are changed to the flesh and the blood of Jesus. We still have the appearance of bread and wine, but at Mass, we have flesh and blood of the Son of God. It occurs the Transubstantiation, when the change of substance only happens, not a change of look.
God Bless Us
