What is is that makes you say that "what appears to be a bread in a monstrance is actually our Savior"?

Because when Jesus says something, I tend to believe Him.

"I am the living bread that came down from Heaven. I came so that all might believe and have life everlasting"

 

That's what!

"This is the bread that comes down from heaven, so that one may eat of it and not die.  I am the living bread that came down from heaven.  Whoever eats of this bread will live forever; and the bread that I will give for the life of the world is my flesh."  The Jews then disputed among themselves, saying, "How can this man give us his flesh to eat?" So Jesus said to them, "Very truly, I tell you, unless you eat of the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you.  Those who eat my flesh and drink my blood have eternal life, and I will raise them up on the last day; for my flesh is true food and my blood is true drink."

Down in adoration falling,
This great Sacrament we hail,
Over ancient forms of worship
Newer rites of grace prevail;
Faith will tell us Christ is present,
When our human senses fail.

The Eucharist. There's no way to explain what happens. He comes to me. I'm foul-mouthed, dirty handed, and a sinner. He should think of me as an enemy. But He doesn't. He rests on my tongue and nourishes my body and my soul. My whole sensual and tactile life is caught up in being in His Presence at Adoration, being united to Him via communion or prayer, reading His Word, contemplating my crucifix, or His Mother. The Eucharist is just wonderful, lovely, good, healing, beautiful (I hate how weak these words are)--It's Him. It's my God, my King, my Friend, and my Beautiful Lover coming to me, uniting Himself to me.

Have you ever doubted? You seem like firm believer?

 

I highly doubt that one can reach a mature state of faith without having once doubted.

those with the greatest faith seem to be those with a dark night....
