Soaked in Grace
By Mark D. Stucky
When partaking of communion,
“intinction” is the practice
of dipping the bit of bread
into a common cup.
The bottom of the bread
becomes soaked in wine,
and the bread and wine,
entwined, without separation,
are consumed together as one.
We’re usually unaware,
but God’s grace surrounds us.
No separation exists
between us and grace.
God soaks our lives in grace
and asks us to partake.
