My Table Part XI

So, as we begin to bring this epic story to a close, I want to ask you another question: consider what your heart and your soul truly desire and need at this moment. Selah.

It's not that obvious, is it! Peeling back all the defensive walls and facades, as well as removing all the offences and injustices held onto, takes effort, but let me help you reveal what I see.

• Do you need to continue to strive?

• Do you need to keep justifying?

• Do you need to keep performing?

• Do you need to keep being offended, discontent, and angry?

And what if you let go of those things? What would life actually look like?

Isn’t it easy to cling to those things that are death to you, and yet overlook the abundant life that is offered to you?

In your mind, you hope that The Table will provide solutions to all your difficulties in life and will deliver justice, retribution, and restitution. However, I offer something far higher and greater than mere solutions to tough situations. I truly offer you the power to be content in your heart despite the enemies you face.

What does your heart truly long for once you remove those things? It is to be content, at peace, and united with me. And yes, that is found at My Table.

Let me illustrate: Being in a state of contentment means experiencing happiness, satisfaction, and peace. The Table is both a place of exchange and a feast, and the exchange must occur first before the feast begins. This happens when you remove your outer garments of bitterness, anger, shame, discontent, striving, and guilt, leaving them outside. Instead, put on the robes I have provided for you, the Robe of Righteousness, bought at a great price.

And then, when seated, you will discover the things that your soul longs for: the peace that surpasses understanding, contentment in all things, happiness, and joy beyond measure.

Certainly, there is no lack of these wonderful things before you, yet your greatest challenge is to accept them, recognise that you need them, and understand that you cannot attain them, as they are a perfect gift from God, given to you freely and without measure.

The challenge varies for each person. For some, pride obstructs their path, often in the form of self-righteousness; for others, life's traumas cling to them as part of their identity; and some are hindered by the idolisation of self.

And yet, true contentment, peace, and joy are always accessible at The Table set before you.

Will you partake or walk away empty-handed and weighed down by your misery?

Will you trade death for the abundance of life?

Will you die in your sins or receive resurrection life?

The choice of what you dine upon is yours, my beloved one.
