the Last Supper

Scripture:  Luke 22.8-22

Wow....can you imagine the emotion in that room....when Jesus broke the bread and passed the cup.  I think when the disciples took communion, they felt a bit differently than we do when we take communnion.  They had all the sadness, confusion and worry going through their minds at the thought of the Son of God, their leader, teacher, mentor, and friend dying and leaving them.  Today we have a gratefullness that we have a hope and freedom in the sacrifice He made for us, and an excitement for when he returns for us to be with Him for eternity.  I don't have much more to say about this that we haven't heard a thousand times, but I challenge us in our personal time with Jesus, to take communion and spend time thanking Him for the hope He made for us on the Cross.
