Good morning. Peace be with you all. Rejoice in the Lord always. "He took some bread and gave thanks to God for it. Then he broke it in pieces and gave it to the disciples, saying, “This is my body, which is given for you. Do this to remember me.” Luke 22:19 NLT.
Insight
Jesus asked the disciples to eat the broken bread “to remember me.” He wanted them to remember His sacrifice and reaching, the basis for forgiveness of sins, and also His friendship that they could continue to enjoy through the work of the Holy Spirit. Although the exact meaning of Communion has been strongly debated throughout church history, Christians still take bread and wine/juice in remembrance of their Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.
Challenge
Do not neglect participating in the taking of bread and wine/juice to focus on and remember who Jesus is and what He stood for. Let it remind you of what Christ did for your freedom as a sinner. May God bless and protect you all. In Jesus mighty name. Amen.
