Every time we partake of the Holy Communion, we remember the broken body and spilled blood of the Lord. We remember His sacrificial love for us. Our hearts well up with thanksgiving for all He has done for us.
A grateful heart is a distinct characteristic of a Christian. When we bring to mind the goodness and graciousness of our loving God, we leave no room for anxieties, worries and fear. Our hearts are overwhelmed with gratitude for the blessings of family and friends, home, finances, food, clothing, education, resources etc. Nothing that we have belongs to us for we are merely His stewards. He sustains us and gives us energy and capabilities to make a living. If we are ever full of ourselves, we will hamper the move of God in our lives. Humility is the doorway that invites the presence of the Lord to work in and through us for His glory.
