Reflection
 15:  Article 3 of  THE DOGMATIC CONSTITUTION ON THE CHURCH
 


                                       LUMEN GENTIUM
, 1964 

 

God knew us and loved us before we were born.
Before our flight began,
God planned to upgrade us from human life to divine life
- at the Check In Desk of his Divine Son

God the Son became a man and paid for our upgrade
by his life, death and resurrection

The Church is the Check In Desk set up by Jesus
where all people are invited to receive an upgrade

This upgrade is not a magic "that's it, you're done" procedure.
It's something to be lived out in friendship with Jesus each day
of our flight here on earth,
until our arrival at the Heavenly Airport

During our flight, the Eucharistic menu
nurtures and nourishes our friendship with
the Captain of our hearts

Jesus, please help us understand more deeply
how much you have done for us
