"And when He had taken the cup and given thanks, He said, 'Take this and share it among yourselves...'"
Before the proclamation of "this is my blood" it was just a cup...a cup of wine at a holiday meal. Before "communion", they just drank together, ate together.
That mystical connection between spirit and physical, the ritual of remembrance, the symbolic sacrament, the sacred symbol...it started with a group of friends sitting around a table sharing a drink and a meal.
First we walk and learn together. Then we simply eat together. And it's a mystery how but at some point, our sharing life becomes more than community...it is communion.
