This symbol. #communion #lordssupper I’ve pract

This symbol. #communion #lordssupper I’ve practiced this ritual nearly every Sunday since 1973. It centers me. Keeps me grounded. It helps me look at the blackest sky, the dark storm rolling in and say “I trust that the One holding onto me will not let me go.” I trust that the God of forgiveness and resurrection is also the God of Daily bread. (And daily toilet paper. )

Today I took the bread and the wine in relative isolation but was deeply aware that God also wants to stop the greater pandemic of “corona stress”. God spent a lot of time on me, teaching me that I did not need to live in fear. Over the past 55 years he has proven himself faithful in more ways than I can count. I’m gonna end this with one of the first scriptures I learned as a child, hoping it gives comfort to anyone who needs it: “Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.”
1 Peter 5:7
