Luke 22:19 And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, "This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me." ***************************
Today is Maundy Thursday. On this day of Holy Week the church reflects on the night Jesus was with His disciples celebrating passover right before He died on the cross.
Jesus took bread and broke it. Was He thinking at that moment what it would take to break Him?
He knew He had to die on the cross.
He knew that He would raise from the dead.
Jesus took bread and broke it. Was He thinking at that moment what it would take to break Him?
He knew He had to die on the cross.
He knew that He would raise from the dead.
He knew that He would live eternally.
He knew this sacrifice would save me from my sins.
He knew He would be broken for me.
Some days I feel broken, beaten down and discouraged. We all do. But on days like that, I usually pray more asking for God's help. When I feel like I can't do it, I come to Him.
Curiously, in the Psalms, God reveals how much He appreciates a broken attitude. Thank you, Lord for modeling brokeness for me.
Ps 51:17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise.
