What are we preparing for?
Jesus sent the disciples to instruct the innkeeper to prepare space for Passover.
The passover meal was a time of remembrance of the time they hurried to leave Egypt and God’s providence at that time in their lives.
Maundy Thursday – Maundy from the Latin – to mandate. Jesus mandated that each time they took the cup and broke the bread they were to remember him and the new covenant; new promise.
What are we preparing for today?
Life continues to change. The third wave of the virus is in full swing. We’ve moved back into a lock-down. Plans, once again, will change. Have we planned for this? Are we prepared?
May God bless those plans as we pivot and turn from what we thought to what is the reality.
