Foodie Fridays – A Significant Supper

Today is Good Friday. It is the day we as Christians remember Jesus and the willing sacrifice He made for us on the cross.

But before He was arrested He sat down with those closest to Him and served them in shocking ways.

First, He had a meal prepared of bread and wine. The bread was symbolic of his body that would soon be broken for our sins. The wine was symbolic of his sinless blood that would soon be spilled beneath the cross. He asked the disciples to partake of this meal that night and on a regular basis there after. He gave one stipulation; “Do this in remembrance of Me.”

Next, He humbled Himself by kneeling before each disciple washing their dirty feet. He did this as an act to show what true love does for others—one who is willing to serve, rather than demand to be served. No other god had ever demonstrated such love and humility. But Jesus was different.

The disciples were perplexed as they took in all that had taken place. They had no idea what was coming or that this meal would be remembered until Jesus returned.

This Foodie Friday is good because Jesus set the table for us to enjoy His Supper often and with gratefulness as we remember Him.

“The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift his face on you and give you peace.”
‭‭Numbers‬ ‭6‬:‭24‬-‭26‬ ‭
