Luke 22: 1–38

The Lord’s Supper

Jesus teaches the Disciples a new way to worship, and yet we see in the Disciples the true nature of human beings.  A discussion of who might betray Jesus digressed into which disciple is greatest and will succeed Jesus’ ministry.  Peter, the rock, is told that he will deny Jesus three times that night.  How many times do we deny Jesus, or worry more about our glory than His?  Furthermore, we often fail to realize what He is trying to teach us, and to fully understand His Sacrifice.  Today, may we remember that the bread broken for us is Jesus’ body; the wine poured out is Jesus’ Blood, a gift from the Father. Jesus says, “But I am among you as the one who serves.” Luke 22:27.
