In 1 Corinthians 11:26-32 Paul talks of the seriousness of our attitude as we partake of the Lord's Supper. We need to approach this sacrament with jumility, gratefullness and thankfulness--We need to take it seriously.
Before we enter into this sacrament together Paul urges us to confess our sins, to check our motives, to see if there is anything that we have against another believer and go to that person and ask for forgiveness.
As a matter of fact Paul says, "If you give no thought (or worse, don't care) about the broken body of the Master when you eat and drink, you're running the risk of serious consequences. That's why so many of you even now are listless and sick, and others have gone to an early grave. If we get this straight now, we won't have to be straightened out later on. Better to be confronted by the Master now than to face a fiery confrontation later."
Take time today to come before the Father and ask Him to search your heart, to see if there is anything that you have against someone else...and take care of it! Confess to the Father, or you may need to call someone and ask their forgiveness.
Till Tomorrow...Bro. Alan
