Teach.

Older women likewise are to be… teaching what is good, so that they may encourage the young women to love their husbands, to love their children, to be sensible, pure, workers at home, kind, being subject to their own husbands, so that the word of God will not be dishonored” (Titus 2:3-5)

Broken bread.

"During communion, I couldn't help but notice the crumbs that kept falling from the bread basket. The spent body cracking and breaking onto the floor. I felt a sense of awe at the extravagance of the plenty, enough to spill over. And we all are taking our morsel and longing for nourishment beyond what we see and feel of this place. It's a mysterious meal. Something feels extravagant that the broken bread has an overflow of crumbs, and overflow of brokenness it doesn't try and hide. It feels like we may all be okay. The enough-ness of the meal in all of its simple frugality is hard to understand. Jesus is enough. He must be enough. He will sustain us through bottoms, tops, victories and failures. The place to be broken, the place to rejoice, the landing place to meet the worst of ourself and be met.... "
The above quote is from this link ^^^^ they are not my words. They are the words of a beautiful woman, Kara Tippetts.

THIS IS WHY COMMUNION/SACRAMENT IS SO BEAUTIFUL! IT IS FOR EVERYONE ALL THE TIME. 
NO MATTER WHAT. 
NO MATTER WHAT SIN HAS BEEN COMMITTED. 
FORGIVENESS IS ALWAYS THERE FOR US TAKE. 
ALWAYS. 
I AM NOT SURE IF THAT WORD IS FULLY GRASPED BY HUMANS. 
JESUS SAID HE WILL NEVER LEAVE US NOTE FORSAKE US. 
NEVER. 
WHICH CAN BE FLIPPED TO SAY --
HE IS ALWAYS THERE. 
ALWAYS WAITING. 
ALWAYS REACHING FOR US. 
THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO TO SEPARATE YOURSELF FROM JESUS. 
LET THAT SOAK INTO YOUR SOUL. 
REMEMBER THAT WE ALL MESS UP. 
WE ALL MAKE GRAVE MISTAKES. 
MISTAKES THAT CAN ALTER OUR LIVES. 
MISTAKES THAT HURT OTHERS. 
MISTAKES THAT GRIEVE THE HEART OF OUR CREATOR. 
BUT GUESS WHAT? 
If God is in it, it's not over. 
If your heart is truly repentant. 
Then you are forgiven. 
Find a church that allows you to take communion and find true forgiveness. 
They exist. 
And there are beautiful people waiting to help you meet Jesus in a real way. 
I urge you to seek CHRIST. 
You will find Him if you truly seek after HIM. 
STOP TRYING TO PLEASE MAN & ABIDE BY THEIR RULES AND REGULATIONS. 
STOP BELIEVING THE LIE THAT ALL SORTS OF CHURCH DOCTRINE IS THE ONLY WAY TO HEAVEN. 
IT ISN'T. 
If you long for something more. 
If you long to feel forgiven. 
If you long to find peace. 
If you've made mistakes. 
If you want to move forward. 
If you want healing for your soul. 
Jesus is near. 
He is waiting for you. 
For me. 
For everyone.
