“Have you ever thought of how wonderfully you have been made; that there is in you something which can be seen and touched, namely your body whose nature is flesh, but there is also something invisible about you, namely your mind and soul with its thoughts, its loves and its desires. Your soul is, in a sense, incarnate in a body, that is, your soul animates and unifies your body. Now consider the Person of Our Divine Lord. He is the true incarnation, not of a soul in a body, but of God in the form of man. There is something visible about Him, namely, His perfect human nature, but there is also something invisible about Him, and that is His Divinity. Just as your body and your soul combine to make one person, so in an infinitely more perfect way, His human nature and His Divine Nature make but one person, the Person of Jesus Christ, the Son of the Living God true God and true man.” Archbishop Fulton Sheen (The Rock Plunged into Eternity)
