“He was known of them in breaking of bread” (Luke 24.35).
They grew in the “breaking of bread.” In Luke 24.15-30 we read about those two disciples on the Emmaus Road after the resurrection of the Lord. When He sat with them in the breaking of bread, their eyes were suddenly opened. It was then that they recognized their Lord.
That is how they were taught. Our Lord is so great, so mighty, and so wonderful, we cannot see Him with our ordinary eyes. He is beyond human comprehension, far above the understanding of our human faculties. And yet we can know Him! He can be more precious to us than anybody else in all the world when we know Him in His true glory.
The table of the Lord, and the breaking of bread to remember the Lord’s death till He come, provide us an opportunity for an inward sight of Him which is not possible otherwise. It is a place of worship. It is the place where we grow spiritually, and come to know His true worth. That is what worship means, “worth-ship” It is to be able to say in broken language: “What is my Lord to me? What will I give back to Him in return?”
Today’s calendar’s Bible verse:
“He that covereth his sins shall not prosper”. Prov.28:13.
