From there:
So, when you take the Bread and the Wine, which the Minister of Christ has consecrated (that is to say, set apart for this sacred purpose), what shall you think? what shall you believe? The Bread is in itself just bread still, the Wine is just wine. But because the Lord has told you to take them ‘in remembrance of Him,’ and because you who take them humbly believe in Him, therefore, that simple Bread, that small drought of Wine, speak straight from Him to you. They are like the very sound of His Voice, saying: ‘All is true, all is yours. It is no dream that I died for you, and that you are saved by Me, any more than your eating and drinking is a dream.’ They are like the very grasp of His Hand taking hold of your hand, and meaning: ‘We are one, poor believing sinner. I have joined you, I have clasped you, to Myself. As surely as you touch and taste that Bread and Wine, so surely you, who believe in Me, are one with Me.”
Join me on #TheLeadersNotebook as I reflect on the Last Supper in Matthew 26. Communion is not just remembrance; it’s renewal. Through the sacred elements, the Holy Spirit ministers grace, healing, and restoration to the soul.
