“So then, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord. Everyone ought to examine themselves before they eat of the read and drink from the cup. For those who eat and drink without discerning the body of Christ eat and drink judgment on themselves.” 1 Corinthians 11:27-29

Dear Jesus, How serious you want us to be when we take the Lord’s Supper! It’s the celebration and proclamation of your greatest act of love that has the greatest effect on our lives! It’s the partaking of your very sacrifice that you made for us. I will take it reverently for the rest of my life. Give me a sober and faith filled attitude about this sacred act and help my brothers and sisters to take it seriously too. It connects us together in faith and love and it connects us to you who is our life. After I have taken your supper, help it to give me peace and hope for the days I face until the next Lord’s Supper moment with you. I don’t want to ever lose the significance of this simple, yet powerful meal. Amen.

We all have a favorite meal. The Lord’s Supper is God’s favorite!
