The Sunday Sermonette – Communion Is Always A Special Time.

A Special Sunday – We took communion at church this morning. The observance was not much different than all the other observances of communion. But today, as in times past, it was – for me – a special time.

It was a time to come before the Holy God of the universe – the same God who created that universe and everything in it – and to stand before Him and pray for forgiveness of sins; to pray for renewal in the Christian walk; and to pray for guidance in a world gone mad.

As the music played softly, as families took the elements together as families, as each person there contemplated his or her own relationship to the one and only God, I could not help but tear up, knowing that each of us will never be made perfect until that God – the perfect God – calls each one of us Home.

And with that assurance, I left church renewed, knowing “that God is in His Heaven, all’s right with the world.”

Later ‘Gaters!
