I have a question for you. Experientially, what does Communion do for you beyond what the Word and the Holy Spiritis doing in you? I.e., How does Communion make a difference in your life beyond what the the Word and the Holy Spirit are currently doing in you?You sound like you have a strong faith already, so I can see why you may not see the value in receiving the Eucharistic Lord, but what difference does Holy Communion make in my life? There's no real way to explain it in a few words. But for an example, someone who had known me for years and years as a teen and young adult, met up with me when I was 33 or so, and she said, "You don't even seem like the same person. You were always so cynical, inappropriate, and harsh. (I had to stop her!) *smiles* But there's a big huge world of difference between partaking in His *daily* Flesh and not.
Dear mlizzy - Thank you for your frank and courteous answer. A Roman Catholic priest once told me, “If you seek God with all your heart, you will find Him.” He was right! If I’m missing it regarding communion - I believe God will enlighten me because I seek the Truth. I give Thanksgiving (eucharistia) for our Lord and Savior, Jesus the Christ. - Shalom!!
