I started rambling somewhere else:
And here are those ramblings, there's something incomplete [incorrect?] about it besides its incoherent nature:
The worship of the Church is the constant reference of everything to its fulness in the Kingdom of God. Time, the material world, our work, our selves, everything pointed to its fulfillment in the Kingdom of God. The Church is the Kingdom of God made present on this earth. The Church is instituted and manifests itself in the Eucharist, where we offers ourselves and all our lives to Christ our God, we give him the fruit of our labor, wine and bread, in remembrance of His life, death, and resurrection, and in return He sends to us His Spirit who shows the bread and wine to be the very Body and Blood of Christ which is given to us as our food. We are given the Kingdom of God in our worship, in the here and now. What is it that we are witnesses of, and what is this life that we have been given? We are witnesses of the Kingdom of God made manifest in the Church, and the life we are given is the very life of the Holy Trinity, we are given the Kingdom of God, which is peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. The whole world has become, through the Incarnation, a sign of the presence of God.
