This Sunday we celebrate the Feast of Corpus Christi (and it is Cupcake #3's 8th birthday.  Her birthday post coming later).  This doctrine of the Catholic Church is so misunderstood by both Catholics and non-Catholics alike.

If you have a hard time understanding/believing this mystery, you are not alone for even Jesus' disciples questioned Jesus' words and they were already followers of Him.

I hope the following article (See link below) gives great insight into this teaching that traces back in history to not a man-made teaching, but to a teaching from God, made man.
