"This meal is for sinners only." - David Watson

On October 17, 2013 Erin Green gave birth to her first child - a healthy baby girl. But soon afterward, Erin developed a rare condition called disseminated Intravascular coagulation (DIC) that kept blood from clotting normally. DIC has a high mortality rate and is difficult to control. Erin lost over three liters of blood and was in the OR for more than three grueling hours, while physicians tried to stop the bleeding. She received twelve units of blood, 6 units of fresh frozen plasma, and 2 units of platelets before she finally became stable and the bleeding was controlled. Erin believed that Jesus Christ sacrificed His
life for us to be saved; and that faith worked for her as she took in those 12 units of blood. A few weeks after going home from the hospital Erin had the opportunity, along with her husband Todd and their daughter, to meet some employees from the Arkansas Blood Institute. "I was able to thank them and to let them see, first hand, the benefits and changed lives that resulted from the work that they do every day. It was a humbling experience to say the least." said Erin.
Friends your health can improve if you have faith in Jesus and believe He really sacrificed His own life for you to be saved. Anything is possible if you have faith. The Lord’s Supper is a humbling remembrance of Christ’s sacrifice, where He poured out His blood for our sins. As Christ's ambassadors who have the fear of God, it will be easy to walk in the part of righteousness if we continue to remember His sacrifice. Thank Him for communion, His sacrifice for our deliverance and His provision for our daily needs.
