Growing up every communion service we were reminded that we were not to partake of the bread and the cup in an unworthy manner. Of course this meant unconfessed sins or even worse, taking communion as a non-believer. However, I got thinking. Who is really worthy? There is nothing in myself that makes me worthy to partake. Certainly it is not my righteousness. So then am I unworthy? Yes but then...
I may be unworthy in myself but there is One who makes me worthy. I am not worthy because of anything that I have done but rather I am worthy because of what Jesus has done. I am worthy because of Him and it is He who we are remembering. Thank you Jesus, I am worthy because of your death and shed blood.
