THAT IS IT--UNDERSTAND THAT---OWN IT--REMIND YOURSELF OF IT--
IT IS NOT MY PARTY!
It IS ALL about Him! He is the creator God--ALL comes from Him. He is the one that we celebrate--all honor and glory are His. ALL the gifts should be laid before Him. Our starry crowns would never be without Him--so put them at His feet. Pass Him the refreshments---sing the song to Him--shout loud praises to Him---dance in celebration of His wonder. It is totally--completely--absolutely--entirely--ALL ABOUT HIM!
YET--He is the PERFECT GENTLEMEN! He shares His bountiful creation with us--He showers us with blessings and gifts--which we do not deserve. He refreshes us with a land of honey and sweet living water. He is NOT clinging to all that is His--No He is sharing the wealth of His riches. BECAUSE of His love--He freely gives--endows--supplies--us--His beloved a part of His ALL.
So leave the theme of "It's my party" behind and recognize your guest status. An honored and well loved guest--but we are all guest at His table--It is ALL ABOUT HIM and IT IS HIS PARTY!
BECAUSE I am thankful for all His continual presence in my life,
as I drove down the road today I looked up and thanked Him
for His consistent and faithful care. Answering prayers and leaving no doubts that He had closed a door and reminding me to be patient as He reveals the path He has planned.

"Hearing this, a man sitting at the table with Jesus exclaimed, "What a blessing it will be to attend a banquet in the Kingdom of God!"
