 The disciples on the road to Emmaus saw Jesus, talked with Jesus and ate with Jesus but did not recognize Him in His resurrected body until He broke the bread. At the wedding of Cana in Galilee, He revealed His glory to the disciples after turning the water to wine. The bread and the wine are symbols of Eucharist, a celebration of  thanks chosen in the face of suffering. Ann Voskamp, in her book, One Thousand Gifts, describes the miracles that happen when we recognize God’s revelation around us and in us and truly give thanks.- Teresa

Psalm 100

1Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth!
2 Serve the Lord with gladness!
Come into his presence with singing!
3 Know that the Lord, he is God!
It is he who made us, and we are his;[a]
we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.
4 Enter his gates with thanksgiving,
and his courts with praise!
Give thanks to him; bless his name!
5 For the Lord is good;
his steadfast love endures forever,
and his faithfulness to all generations.
