I will rejoice today because I have an invitation to come and dine with Jesus. So do you!  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I was young I used to love to sing the old hymn called \u201cCome and Dine.\u201d The song was written in the early 1900s. The chorus goes like this:  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cCome and dine,\u201d the Master calleth,
\u201cCome and dine!\u201d
You can feast at Jesus\u2019 table anytime.
He who fed the multitude, turn the water into wine.
To the hungry calleth now, \u201cCome and dine!\u201d\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

What an incredible invitation! God has shown us unbelievable kindness. He has brought us into His family, given us provision, favor, and a place at His table. We were lame, forgotten, and unworthy when Jesus found us and invited us to sit at His table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We dine with Jesus every time we spend time with Him, feasting on His Word. He is the bread of life (John 6:35). We dine with Him every time we partake of Communion (Matthew 26:26-30). We even have an invitation to dine with Him at the marriage supper of the Lamb (Revelation 19:9).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When we dine with Jesus, we always partake of a sumptuous feast. It\u2019s good to know that we have a place at His table\u2014now and forever!  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBlessed are those who are called to the<\/em>
marriage supper of the lamb.” ~Revelation 19:9 <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
