Communion

I checked my voicemail when I got home today, and had a message from somebody at my church. She asked if I was going to the Tenebrae service tomorrow night and if I was if I would be interested in helping serve Communion.

I love the sacrament of Communion. I am humbled by the very word. It became more meaningful to me while I was going to Bible College. I remember one year, probably my 3rd year, we were all sitting in the cafeteria sharing Communion at each table. That was the first time I had led anyone in Communion and I was honored to do so.

I remember those words: "The Lord Jesus, on the night He was betrayed, took bread, and when He had given thanks He broke it and said, 'This is my body, which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me.' The same way He took the cup saying, 'This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this whenever you drink it in remembrance of me.' For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until He comes."

Thank You Lord for Your sacrifice. May we honor You through the Sacrament of Communion.
