Dining with royalty

Revelation 4:20

‘Here I am! I stand at the door and knock, if anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me.’

I chose the guests carefully
The invites were sent out ages ago
To all the right people
The table was set, the food prepared
Everything was ready
Who on earth is knocking at the door?
My guests are all here
Who is asking to come in?
For goodness sake, give me peace
I’m trying to host a dinner party here!

The knocking persists
I go to check it out
I did not expect to see you at my door
You were not on my list
Although it appears I was on yours
I have never thought of inviting you in
But now you stand before me what shall I do?
I can close the door, and tell you to go
Return to the friends who are curious about this uninvited guest
Incredibly you call me friend
And I see the place that has been made ready
Long ago at your table waiting for this moment
‘Please come in and sup with us Lord’
The table is furnished with bread and wine
And from deep within we hear your voice
‘This is my body broken for you’…..
