Why View The Banquet Only From Afar?

Awaken To The Banquet Of God’s Love

We thirst. We hunger. The banquet table is set. Why only view the abundance and smell the aromas? Go and taste the delights. Be filled. This is the banquet that God has set for us. It is given by grace and acceptance is by faith. It is a banquet for now, that joys may be celebrated and sorrows shared; it is the promise for tomorrow, when all sorrows cease. Freely offered, open to all to accept.

Isaiah 55:1-2

Come, all you who are thirsty,

    come to the waters;

and you who have no money,

    come, buy and eat!

Come, buy wine and milk

    without money and without cost.

Why spend money on what is not bread,

    and your labour on what does not satisfy?

Listen, listen to me, and eat what is good,

    and you will delight in the richest of fare.
