Heavenly Father, how deeply grateful I am for this beautiful sacrament of Communion—given to us by Jesus the night before His crucifixion. I commit myself now to partake of this sacrament more often—as a powerful way of proclaiming Your death, remembering You, anticipating Your return, recognizing Your body, participating in Your death and resurrection, sharing with all believers, and separating myself from worldly pursuits. Thank you that as I partake, I am receiving life from You and celebrating the eternal life You have brought to me.
I come out of darkness now into the light. I repent of my sins and attitudes. I ask for forgiveness through Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross for me. In Jesus’ name, I forgive all those who have hurt me, and I declare my trust in You and Your plans for my life.
I prepare my heart now to meet You at every opportunity I will have to partake of this wonderful sacrament of Holy Communion. Amen.
