As I made my way to the communion table at the Good Friday service this evening, I was stopped by a dear friend.
"I need prayer," she said with tears pouring from her eyes. "I don't feel like I deserve this right now."
But isn't that the whole point of His death? Sometimes, it feels good to take communion and pray, "God, I like walking beside You" or "God, I've learned so much from Your word this past month." But what makes the Good News good is that it is all about God, not us.
How wonderful to take the bread and the cup and know with complete understanding that we are not deserving of it!
