Worship God with our whole body!

The incarnation of Jesus Christ reveals the heart and mind of God to us. What is sometimes overlooked is how becoming flesh changes our view of God and ourselves  No longer is God a person who watches us from a distance but is intimately engaged in our everyday struggles. The implications of this is that he is not immune to our suffering or distant from our own reality. 
This is recognised in how we celebrate Mass. We are called to fully engaged as a people of God who embody Christ. When we pray we worship with our mind, our heart and our body. This holistic reality calls us to be holy. Not by removing ourselves from the world but rather in discovering God at the heart of all things 
We witness to what is hidden by becoming transparent in our prayers to a God who always listens so that may hear God's voice. We reflect on our own environment and what is pleasing to God. We act in a way that embodies God’s life within us. We worship God with our whole life.
