may the mystery of that night – v4


May the mystery of that night

be present with us, remembered
each time we celebrate that meal together
when we lift bread and the cup.

We remember You, Lord,
Your choice, Your servanthood,
Your gift, Your sacrifice
the grace You poured out on us.

May we ever be thankful
that night present with us
giving praise, thanksgiving
for Your place in our lives.

would we know the Messiah
11/27/18 my response
That lack of vision may be part of why the Jewish leaders could
not see Christ as the real Messiah prophesied in scripture.
They were looking for a lower-case messiah like Saul or David,
an earthly king to overthrow Rome, not the Lamb to take away
their condemnation under Law.”

Far too many of us lower our view of scripture in order to match
our experience and expectations. Instead we should be raising our
expectations to match the witness of scripture.

amen, that table, the altar, the throne of the cross;
thank you Heavenly Father and risen Lord and Savior

Pope Francis’ post
While the great ones of the Earth build themselves
‘thrones’ for their own power, God chooses
an uncomfortable throne, the cross,
from which to reign by giving his life.”
