4/30/17: 3rd Sunday of Easter: Not Enough for Jesus to Be with Us

In today's Gospel we have the famous story of the two disciples who are leaving Jerusalem for Emmaus following the death of Jesus. Jesus comes to walk with them, and they soon find themselves enraptured by what was probably the greatest Bible study ever conducted in history. Yet the Scriptures alone were not enough for them to recognize Jesus. It was not until He celebrated the Eucharist for them that they recognized Him. It was not enough for Him to stay with them... He wanted to be in them... achieving union with them, dwelling in their heart through their partaking of the Eucharist.
