Psalm 16:5-6 ESV
5 The Lord is my chosen portion and my cup;
you hold my lot.
6 The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places;
indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance.
When we lift the cup and eat bread in remembrance of Jesus, we acknowledge and proclaim his salvation, our beautiful inheritance. We drink the new wine, transformed from the ceremonial water of cleansing which prepared the way to the righteousness of God. We eat the bread of life, freshly fallen to earth, by the very hand of the Father, and we are sustained in the wilderness journey.
We have found a most pleasant pasture.
