One of our fundamental problems is that we are not hungry enough to feast with Jesus. For a person to desire Jesus he must desire something greater than himself. He must hunger after righteousness and thirst after mercy. Our problem is not a problem of hunger, it’s a problem of self-deception. We eat bread crumbs and claim a feast; we sip wine and claim a festival. What we need is a view of abundance; a Gospel table in the presence of our enemies. When our Lord Jesus says, “Come and dine,” we need to be prepared to loosen our belts.
