Psalm 53:3-4 seems to go hand in hand with this. I love Servant of God's comment.

This is not to be taken lightly for it is in memory of the love Christ has for us and the sacrifice he made with his blood and his body.This is not a meal,that's what u have homes for!

ServantofGod's comment on 2013-02-18 07:06:34:

We desperately need Jesus and because of His death on the cross, we have spiritual life. Our physical life is dependent on our daily food and drink. Eating or drinking out of our physical needs of true hunger and thirst, is symbolic of our deep need of Christ. So, eating communion is every single time we eat or drink out of our need of it - rather than greed, arrogance, boredom, conformity, or any other reason. Then we are able to be truly thankful.
