around the table


Tonight our Maundy Thursday Scriptures focused on times that God's presence, truth, power and compassion were revealed in that sacred space found around the table.

It amazes me how many times God "joins" us around the table.  Or speaks to us in terms of food.  Or uses imagery of feasting to convey the sense of tremendous celebration-- and feasting is communal activity.  
It amazes me how many times God "joins" us around the table-- even tonight God made His presence known in the sharing of the bread and the cup.
Thanks be to God for the table and for those God brings around that table to share the meal of remembrance together.
