Daily Prayer for November 4th, 2019
Good Monday morning, God—thank You!! 🙂
Every day, I eat of the bread and drink of the cup in remembrance of Jesus. The bread, which is His body that was broken, to remember the riches of His goodness. And the cup, which is His blood that was shed for humankind, to bring peace of His forgiveness. Thank You, Jesus, for suffering what You did for our salvation. Thank You for giving us life!! We, who are one body, should all partake of the one bread, Jesus Christ. In His precious name. Amen.

Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.” 26 For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.
