And when He had taken bread and given thanks, He broke it and gave it to them, saying, “This is My body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” And in the same way He took the cup after they had eaten, saying, “This cup, which is poured out for you, is the new covenant [ratified] in My blood.
Luke 22:19-20 AMP

Glory be to God for this beautiful day and the opportunity to rejoice and be glad in it.
Thanks be to God for gifting us with His Son who went on to die for us and also left a symbol for us to remember that great act of sacrifice.
In preparation for His death He met with His disciples and after giving thanks He broke bread and gave them to eat. He also poured wine and gave same to the disciples to represent His blood. That He said should be done in remembrance of Him. His body that was nailed to the Cross for the salvation of man.
As we take the bread and wine/communion, we identify ourselves with the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. That is the reason for our living today, without His death and resurrection there is no hope.
We thank you Father for your son Jesus Christ and for the sacrifice He made for us, we shall forever remember Him as we give thanks to God and celebrate the Holy communion. May Christ Jesus be seen in our lives. Amen.
