Voyage of the DawnTreader: Come to the Table

At the end of their adventure, Euastace, Edmund, Lucy, Prince Caspian and the DawnTreader crew come to Ramandu's Island. They come to find a large banquet table that is filled with all the best and richest foods for them to eat. The table -- known as Aslan's table -- is daily re-set for any travelers who have come the long journey to the end of the world. All are welcome to eat and be refreshed.

It reminded me of a story Jesus told about a great banquet. You may read the story that Jesus told at Luke 14:15-23.

God wants to help us, refresh us, strengthen us, and give us rest for our souls. He will, but we need to slow down and "come to His table". Jesus said, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." (Matthew 11:28) God can feed - not just your body - but your soul.

Take time to pray today, worship Him, listen to Christian music, and He will refresh you.
