DAILY READINGS: Numbers 18; Proverbs 15; 2 Peter 2
For we being many are one bread, and one body: for we are all partakers of that one bread. 1 Corinthians 10:17
To partake is to have communion, fellowship and involvement with someone. This passage clearly implies that we, the Lord’s bloodbought children, are involved in His body and blood, His life and death! We are now allied to Him with all the responsibilities and privileges this brings. One of the responsibilities is to “walk worthy of the calling (vocation) wherewith we are called” (Eph.4.1) and a precious privilege is to “show forth the praises (excellencies), of Him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvelous light” (1 Peter 2.9). How are we measuring up to this participation?—D. Craig
O Thou who died on Calvary, to save my soul and set me free;
I’ll consecrate my life to Thee, my Saviour and my God. —Ralph E. Hudson
