Each week as I stand empty-handed, waiting to receive the bread and the wine, I am aware that there is nothing that I have done to make myself right with God but that he has done everything necessary for me to be made right with him. For me, the Lord's Supper is a most precious gift from God. Participation in it is not about me sending a message to God or about renewing my covenant with God. It's not about what I do at all. It's all about Jesus confirming that his covenant of forgiveness applies personally to me. In the sacrament each week, Jesus is saying to me, "This meal shows you how much I love you."
