Thursday
If it was your last night on earth, what would you do? Jesus chose to spend the time with His closest companions, the twelve disciples, celebrating the Passover feast. This “Last Supper” was more than a meal, it was about relationship. Jesus established the sacrament of communion, demonstrating that the bread and wine were symbolic of His body and blood.
Right now, we may not be able to physically gather in groups, but that doesn’t diminish our need to connect with others. Although we can’t sit together around a table, we can stay connected through a screen. We can see each other’s faces, share our experiences, and be united in faith.
Jesus knew that His relationship with His followers wasn’t dependent on physical proximity, it was based on spiritual intimacy. The relationship didn’t end when Jesus went away, it actually continued to flourish and we are all called to an intimate and growing relationship with Jesus Christ!
In the Last Supper, we see the importance of:
- Gathering together.
- Giving thanks for what we have.
- Remembering Jesus through communion.
We can still be spiritually close during this time. When we celebrate communion, we remember Jesus’ sacrifice and death, and the new life of the resurrection.
