Remembrance
And He took bread, gave thanks, broke it, gave it to them, and said, “This is My body, which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of Me.”
In the same way He also took the cup after supper and said, “This cup is the new covenant established by My blood; it is shed for you.
- Luke 22:19-20 HCSB
As we begin to prepare our hearts and minds for Easter, let us remember Jesus. The Messiah. Our Lord. Our Savior. The King of kings and Lord of lords. The Promised One. Immanuel, God with us.
Let us remember His character.
Let us remember His teaching, His lessons, and the lives He changed.
Let us remember the foot washing, the bread, the wine and His words that Passover night.
Let us remember the garden, the blood-like sweat, the prayer, the not my will but yours be done.
Let us remember the guards, the betraying kiss, Malchus’ ear, the trial, and the denial.
Let us remember the nails, the blood, the cross, the death, the grave.
Let us remember the resurrection, the He’s alive.
Let us remember the love, the hope, the grace, the forgiveness, the blessing.
Let us remember His promises.
Let us remember that He is the truth, the life, the way.
Let us remember, and always be reminded of who He is.... what He has done... what He has yet to do.
Let us remember that He is the Holy One, worthy of our praise.
Let us remember…
Keep the Faith... Carpe Diem
