Breaking the Bread of New Creation

“Christ is risen!  Earth and heaven nevermore shall be the same.

Break the bread of new creation where the world is still in pain.

Tell its grim, demonic chorus: ‘Christ is risen!  Get you gone!’

God the First and Last is with us.  Sing Hosanna everyone!”

— verse 3 of Christ is Risen

Many of us will be be in worship somewhere this weekend.  Many of those services will include Holy Communion.

This song calls us beyond those times: “Break the bread of new creation where the world is still in pain.”

We don’t have to look long or far to see “where the world is still in pain.”  We know where that is.

We do need to “break the bread of new creation.”  The Resurrected Christ calls us to action.

What’s your first step in that process today?
