It is discouraging, but not when we view who we have with us. We have God, who loved us so much that He chose to live a life in which He hid His divinity, He embraced poverty, shunned any honors and riches due to Him, and for us, died a horrific, embarrassing, extremely painful death for love of us.
This same God-Man, who has created everything, gives us te greatest gift at every Mass, Himself.
What more can we ask for? But, we even have more. He has given us his blessed Mother as an intercessor, a perfect example, but truly our Mother.
In light of this, we need not worry.
