π It's the Friday all to Worship! π
Iβ've always loved tables and what happens at them. There's nothing better than spreading out a beautiful table cloth and sharing a meal with loved ones.
While my husband and I were having the conversation that led us to building God's Church, I saw a picture in my mind of a white flag flying. Black, bold letters spelled out "The Table" on the flag. Over a year later, I got another picture when we visited Cape Town. It was a bright, beautiful table cloth descending on the flagship mountain of the Mother City... TABLE Mountain. We knew then Cape Town was part of our story.
This week, the very church God began leading us to all those years ago, filled my big, old dining table with flowers, gifts and loving words for my birthday. The table was literally set with beauty and love by people God had pre-chosen. I was blown away with the reminder that came with it.
God loves tables too. He prepares a table for you in the presence of your enemies. No matter what happened to you or what storm is brewing within you, there's a place set just for you. If you're lonely, weary, thirsty or in need, come to the table. There's nourishment, refreshment and delight for you. His name is Jesus.
Listen to Jonathan Traylor's "The Table" as you let His truth sink in further.
