Bible

[Ranb2khz]

At The Table

“Look! I stand at the door and knock. If you hear My voice and open the door, I will come in, and we will share a meal together as friends.” ~ Revelation 3:20

The Lord offers us all the treasure we can carry. He wants us to be rich beyond measure. However, the Lord’s way of defining riches is quite different than the world’s.

The greatest treasure Jesus offers is found in relationship. The opportunity to mingle with the Creator of the Universe. It begins with hearing his voice and opening the door.

When we sit and break bread together, we share in the necessity of life. Hunger reminds us of our dependency on food to survive. Sharing a meal reminds us that we need one another. Intimacy develops around the table.

This is the true nature of riches in the Kingdom of God. A seat at his table.

Jesus offers us the most valuable thing conceivable. A meal with God. To sit and share stories. To laugh and cry and be with one another. To hear and receive wisdom and insights - insights that turn into treasure.

We learn so much about one another at the table. We learn what we like and dislike, how things are going, what makes us laugh. Jesus continually offers to share all of this with us and to hear our honest expressions.

There is no greater treasure than Jesus at the table. No greater opportunity than for us to sit and share. To glean his perspective. All we need to do is hear his voice. He is calling. He desires to give us the riches of the Kingdom. It begins with opening the door and letting him pass us the potatoes.
