For They Were Greatly Afraid

So before we partake of the Lord's Supper I would like each of us to ask ourselves 3 questions. We must first of all ask ourselves if we are surprised that fear is linked to the revelation of God's glory? Second we must ask ourselves whether Jesus' touch and His words have taken away our fears? And thirdly, we will ask ourselves, as we come to the Lord's table, if we see Jesus as the only One who bring us a holy confidence in our service to God? May the thoughts expressed here this morning convey to each one of us something of the glory of Christ to take away all of our fears.
