The lesson for our kids tonight is about the Great Banquet Parable that Jesus told. He shared that a man planned a great banquet and invited guests. His servant then went to tell the invited guests that it was time and the banquet was ready and they had excuses for not going.
In case you didn't realize this is a picture of God inviting us to come and dine with him for eternity.
Our memory verse is found in Revelation 3:20, Behold I stand at the door and knock, if anyone hears my voice and will open the door, I will come in and dine with him.
Is Jesus knocking at your door? Have you answered him? Or are you asking to be excused due to other things that you seem to think are more important?
Open the door! It is the best banquet you will ever attend :)
I am so thankful I opened the door of my heart to Him so long ago and I know there is room for many more!
ReplyDeleteand the feast is amazing!
ReplyDeleteAnd the Lord (Master) didn't care who came... all were invited but sadly enough some were too busy (sound familiar?) to come and missed out completely!
