Holly invites us to reflect on our spiritual journey. The theme this week is communion. This invitation pushes me to reflect on my spiritual self. Whether you write on a public blog or in a private journal, take some time to reflect, to know your heart a little better, to spend time with God alone.
Take this bread.
Take this wine.
Make it yours.
Make it mine.We come to the table
palms up and raised,
opening our heartsfor nourishment,
for renewal,
for strength,
for comfort.The unleavened wafer
presses on my tongue
an imprint of God’s precious love.I gaze into the cup of wine,
see a reflection–
my eyes, your eyes,
bound together,
in union–
communion.
