Communion Blessing, August 17

Here is the blessing I used at communion this week.

The body and blood of Jesus, the Christ, given for you.

May you have three blessings this week. First, may you know what it is that you need to live the life God intends for you. Second, like the Canaanite woman, may you ask God for what you need. Last, may you have the grace to take what God offers you in response to your prayer.

I offer this prayer in the name of Jesus, the Risen Christ.
