M'Cheyne on the Lord's Supper

We celebrate the Lord's Supper today at Effingham Presbyterian.  It is much more than a simple meal of remembrance.  When we celebrate, we are in the very presence of the Lord, fellowshipping at His table.  Robert Murray M'Cheyne writes,

There are many sermons in which Christ is not from beginning to end; many books where you cannot find the fragrance of His name: but there cannot be a sacrament where Christ is not from beginning to end. Christ is the Alpha and Omega of the Lord's Supper; it is all Christ and Him crucified. These things give a peculiar sweetness to the broken bread and poured-out wine.
