With wonder, humility and gratitude, Moses exclaimed before the Israelites, For what great nation is there that has gods so close to it as the Lord, our God, is to us whenever we call upon him? Or what great nation has statutes and decrees that are as just as this whole law that I am setting before you today?” Thats a hymn of gratitude for the gift of Gods word. But, as the future Pope Benedict once wrote, This passage from the Old Testament has found its ultimate depth of meaning in the eucharistic presence of the Lord. How lucky we are that that Word of God has actually taken on human flesh, dwells near us, and actually seeks to dwell within us. This is a truth that Jesus says in the Gospel we should not only remember and live but teach others to do the same.
