When I partake of Christ Body and Blood, I feel closer to Christ because I know I have to atone myself (come into alignment)and in doing so makes me stronger in the Lord Jesus Christ. Give me another chance to examine myself to make sure I am not harboring any unforgiveness and a chance to start over as I am washed clean with the blood of Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior, that I might abide in Him, and that He would abide in me. To meditate on the atonement made by Jesus, the ultimate sacrifice for my sins past, now, and to come. Glory Hallelujah!!!
