Matthew 26.1-25-While they were eating, Jesus took some bread, and after a blessing, He broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said, "Take, eat; this is My body."
Numbers 35-36-These are the commandments and the ordinances which the LORD commanded to the sons of Israel through Moses in the plains of Moab by the Jordan opposite Jericho.
Job 3-The small and the great are there, and the slave is free from his master.
Isaiah 49.1-7-You are a light of the nations so that My salvation may reach to the end of the earth.

Wait on Me. All will take place in My time.

Jesus seems this day to be giving this message. Wait for His time. All will be fulfilled when God is ready. I don't control God. While the disciples were eating, Jesus offered himself to them to take and eat, this is My body. In His time, Jesus gave Himself to us to take. Take and eat. Take Jesus into yourself. Take Jesus into the very heart of your being. Take Jesus and let Him nourish your soul. Take Jesus. Take Jesus and feel freedom. Take Jesus understanding the the commandments of Moses have convicted you of your sin. Take Jesus into yourself and be forgiven and free to respond likewise to the Love He has freely given you. Take and eat. Small and great, slave and free, all of us are invited to take and eat and receive Jesus into ourselves. Take and eat and see the Light of the nations. Take and eat and become a Light to the nations with Jesus at the heart of your being. Wait on Me. Here, Abe, Sarah's dog, is waiting on Sarah to return from an extended hospital stay. Like Abe, I hear Jesus telling us to wait on Him. Wait on His time and place. Wait and then take and eat His salvation.

Lord, I wait. I thank You for Your timing. I thank You for the time to wait. I thank You for the day that You command me to take and eat. Eat, and eat it freely. Take, take it freely. Take Your Love and salvation. But for now---I wait. ---Amen
