Mark 14:22-23
Jesus’ Generous Deeds Matched His Grateful Words

While Eating the Traditional Passover Meal with His Disciples, Jesus …

Took Bread
Gave Thanks for the Bread
Broke the Bread
Gave the Bread to His Disciples
Said to Take and Eat is as His Body

Took the Cup
Gave Thanks for the Cup
Offered the Cup (and all drank)

While they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to his disciples, saying, “Take it; this is my body.” Then he took the cup, gave thanks and offered it to them, and they all drank from it.

Jesus Shared the Bread and Cup Just as She Shared Every Other Good Thing He Thanked His Father for Sharing with Him

Luke 18:11
Learning Good Prayer Habits from a Bad Example: The Pharisee Who Thought He Was Blessed to Not Be Counted Among the …

Robbers
Evildoers
Adulterers

or even …

Tax Collectors

The Pharisee stood up and prayed about ["to"?] himself: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like other men—robbers, evildoers, adulterers—or even like this tax collector.

He Was Definitely ”Standin’ in the Need of Prayer” … too bad he prayed “to” himself.

And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me.”
