Do This in Remembrance of Me
Then he took a loaf of bread, and when he had given thanks he broke it and gave it to them, saying, This is my body, which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of me. And he did the same with the cup after supper, saying, This cup that is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood.
Luke 22:19-20
At the last supper, hours from the cross, Jesus took bread and a cup and turned an ancient feast into the meal his people would share until he returns.
Of everything he could have commanded us to repeat, Jesus chose a supper, his body given, his blood poured out, taken together, regularly, in remembrance. Memory is the command because forgetting is the danger. The table keeps the cross present tense.
Take the supper seriously and take it often, and bring your full attention when you do: examine your heart, remember the price, receive the grace again. It is not a ritual to perform but a rescue to remember.
