In a Bite of Holy Bread
Oct 15, 2021
As I stand in this line,
Lord, hear my plea.
What am I to do after
I have consumed Thee?
For I feel Your mighty
presence here in this room;
yet, I feel unworthy
to carry forth
the responsibility
I consume.
Oh, My sweet child,
do not worry
on such things;
just let that you have
consumed within
now be a spring.
Allow it to feed
one and then two,
My presence
now flows stronger
through both of you.
If you two go
forward and spread
what together you hold,
My presence then
to all will begin to unfold.
Oh, think of
the strength
you will then feel –
One taste of
My bread through
many becomes real.
Remember long ago
the words that I said.
It is there you’ll find strength
in a bite of Holy Bread.
‘Where two or three
are gathered together
in my name’ –
'There I will be' -
what began
with consumed Bread
now being proclaimed.
