New Wine

Good Things Come To Those Who Wait

Contributed by Craig Condon on Jul 9, 2015

When we receive the bread and wine during Holy Communion, we are holding Christ’s very body and blood, which was nailed to the cross and poured out for our forgiveness. We have seen it with our own eyes and felt it with our own hands and on our tongues.

The coming of Christ involved all manner of waiting on God. A young maiden, a dying man and an old widow all ...read more
