Precious Blood of Jesus. July is the month we take to honor and reflect on the power of the Precious Blood of Jesus.  I’m thinking how awesome Jesus’ death and resurrection victory is and that we take Holy Thursday, Good Friday, Holy Saturday, and Easter Sunday to try to break that down so we can really consider it fully.  There’s so much and so we take even more time to try to absorb that – celebrating the Sacred Heart of Jesus in June and the Precious Blood of Jesus in July!  Every Friday, too, the Church encourages us to reflect on the Passion of Our Lord.  We really can never exhaust all there is to ponder and receive from our Good, Good God!

The celebration of the Precious Blood of Jesus this month flows, quite literally, from the Sacred Heart of Jesus since His Heart was pierced by the lance when He was crucified.  He emptied Himself as blood and water gushed forth.  Calling on the Blood of Jesus invokes the power of the Lord’s death and resurrection.  As baptized members of His Body, His Blood surges through us cleansing us, renewing us, protecting us, and empowering us.  Blood is the life force in all of us.  Jesus’ Blood is Divine Life force!

In the Eucharist we receive that Precious Blood practically, tangibly, and we can call upon that same power.  As blood gives life, Divine Blood incorporates us into Divine Life.  If we are suffering in any way, we can call upon the power of His Blood to cleanse us from the infernal attacks of the enemy, to heal everyone of our ills, and to draw us into the life of Divine Intimacy He has created us for and calls us into.  The same redemptive and transformative power that is the Lord’s was poured out for us on the Cross and is celebrated this month in a special way.

At the beginning of this month, we celebrated the Feast of St. Thomas the Apostle.  Placing his hand into the wounds in Jesus’ hand and side transformed Thomas from the doubter to such a man of faith that he suffered martyrdom in witness to the Lord.  Let’s place ourselves in those wounds as we call upon the power of the Precious Blood of Jesus and witness to Jesus’ life and love by our lives!

May the Lord give you peace!
