Christ’s table is a place of gathering
a place where the broken find restoration
the lonely find communion
the empty find fulfillment
and sinners find grace.
Have we forgotten this?
Have we forgotten that Jesus
ate his last meal with
Thomas the doubter?
Peter the denier?
Judas the betrayer?
Not just that he ate with them,
but that he longed to eat with them?
By his words and actions
he communicated
“You belong.”
Do we?
