This Do In Remembrance
December 7, 2011
When a US Navy vessel arrives or departs from the military bases in Pearl Harbor, the crew of that ship lines up in dress uniform. They stand at attention at arms length on the outer edges of the deck, in salute to the soldiers, sailors, and civilians who died on December 7, 1941. It is a stirring sight, and participants often list it among the most memorable moments of their military career.
Even for spectators on shore, the salute triggers an incredible emotional connection, but especially between the servants of today and the servants of yesterday. It grants nobility to the work of todays sailor, while giving dignity to the sacrifice of those from the past.
When Jesus instituted the Lords Supper (Matt. 26:26-29), it was surely with an eye toward creating this same kind of emotional bond. Our participation in the Lords Table honors His sacrifice while also granting us a connection to Him unlike any other act of remembrance.
Just as the Navy carefully prescribes the way it salutes the fallen, so too Scripture teaches us how to remember Jesus sacrifice (1 Cor. 11:26-28). These acts of reverence and thanksgiving serve to honor past action while giving purpose to present service.
Action Suggestion:
Read with fresh eyes the detailed instructions Scripture
offers for the Lords Supper in 1 Corinthians 11, and
experience anew its power in your spiritual journey.
The Lords Supper Christs memorial that He left for us.
Read: 1 Corinthians 11:23-34
When [Jesus] had given thanks, He broke it and said, Take, eat; this is My body which is broken for you.
1 Corinthians 11:24

I remember back in my Navy Days we sailed into Pearl Harbor. As we made our way to our mooring, we passed by the Arizona Memorial.
It was an honor to render honors as we passed by. I’ll never forget those two experiences.

Good evening, Dave! Hope all is well with you. I have never seen the USS Arizona Memorial in person - hope to sometime before I die. I'd like to render honors to our fallen shipmates there.
