IT"S TIME!

 

  Generally, I tend to sit in the same area at church. In front of me sits a family with two very young children. Each week when it’s time for Holy Communion, the grandmother looks at her grandchildren and audibly says, “ Come on, it’s time to see Jesus!” It makes me smile every time.

 This grandma’s faith is beautiful!  Without using any theological terms or confusing verbiage, Grandma teaches her grandchildren that Holy Communion isn’t something we receive, but rather someone.  Jesus is truly present body, blood, soul, and divinity.

 Isn’t it wonderful to know that Jesus waits for each one of us at the altar? I wonder if Holy Communion would be different for each of us if someone took our hand, pulled us out of our seats, and said, “Come on, it’s time to see Jesus!” Go ahead, let your heart run down the aisle to be near Him! See whose smile is bigger, yours or His?
