Communion with Christ is fueled by humility.  Communion with Christ is fueled by sadness and celebration.  Communion with Christ is propelled by an accurate sense of who you are and what you need, and a celebration of the One who gives it.  Awareness of sin and the promise of salvation are what daily drive you to Christ, not to rush through a passage in His Word and say a quick prayer but to sit at His feet and grieve your sin and give praise for the grace that meets you in it.
