Yes, Hours Away!
Beth and I are having dinner at the Six One Six, a fine dinning restaurant at the JW Marriott, but that won't be my first meal.
If you recall, a couple weeks back I decided to have my first meal on Maundy Thursday, a day on the Christian calendar for when Jesus celebrated his Last Supper, with his disciples. It was a meal that Jesus partook in knowing full well that one of the 12 had already betrayed him, and that the remaining 11 would abandon him, if only temporarily. In addition to starting the prophecy that proves who Jesus was, the Last Supper show us the dedication, fearlessness, understanding, compassion and faith a person must have when following their path.
While I'm eating tonight to time it with Jesus' Last Supper, my first meal will actually be the body of Christ at communion. I'm effected by communion differently, where sometimes it means more to me than others. Sometimes it is just hard to appreciate the magnitude of what communion represents or to focus on the moment. I hoping and suspecting that I will not lack focus nor appreciation tonight.
For now, a night that I've been waiting 44-Days to enjoy is nearly upon me and I'm excited.
Random Notes: Started the day at 187 lbs, I'm at 800 calories as I write this but am guessing to finish around 3200 by the night's end.
