The common mystery of the our faith is the nature of the "gloried" body of the risen Christ. In the writings of the Acts of the Apostles and other writings of Paul Christ no longer has the limitations of a physical body. Jesus Christ appears when and where he chooses. Paul's image of the Church is very similar, it is here there and everywhere. The Church is in me, in you, in them. The Church is Christ's body; we are the Church.
From whom the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, with the proper functioning of each part, brings about the body's growth and builds itself up in love.
EPHESIANS 4:16
How have I been the instrument of the Christ's love in the flesh today?O loving God, who put me together in my mother's womb, bring me today more closely into the Body of Christ.
