THE GOLDEN CUP

God handed me the Golden Cup -

to take a taste of God’s Precious Blood.

I did - as well as a piece of the

Sacred  Bread. I did - as I realized

God without pause accepts me as is.

Wait! Stop! Pause! I just realized

God wants to taste of my precious

blood and my sacred body - but I
cannot fathom why God would  want

to be in Sacred Communion with me.
