Communion

com·mun·ion / /kəˈmyo͞onyən/

The sharing or exchanging of intimate thoughts and feelings, esp. when the exchange is on a mental or spiritual level.

THINK on this. Jesus did Communion with His followers, the sharing of his most intimate thoughts and feelings, with God, with US. We are called to continue to do this, to ‘declare the Lord’s death until He comes.’ And we are to do it often. Why then should it be limited to once a month (if that) only in church? My family and I grew up doing it almost every night. I have never felt as safe and provided for as I did around our picnic table, a plate of Ritz crackers and grape juice in front of me, my siblings struggling to stay awake as our father prayed to our Father. We were each given a chance to pray after, my first exposure to seeking God openly.
More people need this. I am asked all the time ‘How’d you end up so good?’ – I’m not good, but we serve an amazing God, and communion is one of the most powerful means we have to declare HIM in our lives and hearts. YOU can do this. RIGHT NOW, Gatorade, fruit juice, even water, whatever you have. A crouton, a piece of bread, a tortilla, you have the physical symbols. Are you willing to allow them to become the supernatural?
Jesus Himself did this. He asked – He TOLD – us to do the same, to declare God, the power and the might of the Almighty, in our life, in our home, in the world until He returns. So many of you I know have never done this, and that is ok :) that is why I am posting this, to invite all of you to do it with me. That’s my hand, my plate, my declaration of God in my life.
Will you do this with me? Will you announce today and all days that He is King, that YOU accept Jesus as your Savior, as the payment for the sin that has the power to separate us from God, but that He covered with the cross? Will you declare God as Lord for all time, in your life? Will you take up your bread and your cup and break it with me, in Spirit and in Truth, worshipping God in this simple and holy act?
