Mingled with myrrh, embittered. Smyrnizō. They offered Jesus wine mixed with myrrh at the cross, a bitter narcotic to dull the pain. He refused it. He bore the full weight of suffering undimmed.

Wine. Oinos. New wine must be put into new wineskins. The life of the Spirit cannot be contained in old structures. God is always doing something new. Be flexible enough to receive it.

Receive, take, accept. Lambanō. What God offers must be actively received, not merely acknowledged. Reach out and take hold.
