People being people together

Morning: Psalms 101, 109; I Samuel 7:2-17; Acts 6:1-15
Evening: Psalms 119:121-144; Luke 22:14-23

When we eat with our Ojibway daughter-in-law she thanks the Creator for everything, for our life, for our family.  Don’t you think this is what Jesus means when he shares bread and wine?  He invites us, whenever we eat together, to remember and embody all that he represents – Love and Reconciliation, Life restored, Good News for the earth, victory over deathly powers, endurance, hope, and more.  In church, we call it communion.  Communion is people being people together, strengthening one another, seeking Peace with one another and with the earth, and inviting the Great Spirit to help them with that.
