As we were taking Communion together this AM, I spent some time praying and meditating upon just what it all means. The fact that God chose to come and live among us and take on human flesh with all its' frailties is amazing. Then He suffered more pain than most of us could even imagine while wearing this "earthly body". He knows our suffering. He sacrificed His body in great pain and anguish that we might be redeemed.
His blood then was the sacrificial blood of atonement to cover our sins. Blood must be offered or sin can not be forgiven. His blood was spilled upon the alter and we were then cleansed from all of our unrighteous. I am humbled by His willingness to spill His blood for my sin and elated by the promise of eternity with Him.
What a sweet reminder of --Who He Is and What He Has Done For Me.
