“Christ’s good is communicated to all Christians, even as the power in the head is shared by all the members. This communication is effected by the sacraments of the Church, in which the power of Christ’s passion operates, the effect of which is the bestowal of grace for the remission of sins.”
St. Thomas Aquinas

For Reflection:
According to these words of St. Thomas Aquinas, what is the purpose and benefit of the sacraments? How does this enhance my appreciation of the gift God has given me through them?
