Sunday Reflection (August 1, 2021)
The living bread that has come down to us from heaven is Jesus Christ,
and in the Lord’s Supper, through the Holy Spirit, we take Christ within us
and among us (John 6:51-58). The body and blood of Jesus Christ
becomes a part of us in the celebration of the Lord’s Supper, and we
become for the world, the body of Christ redeemed by his blood.
We share the same bread; we drink from the same cup; we receive grace,
and the link of the fellowship established by the Lord’s Supper follows us
throughout the week and month. We share in the life of our Lord, and we
become one with God through Jesus Christ,
and one with one another through Jesus Christ.
