a celebration banquet

Then Jesus said to his host, “When you give a luncheon or dinner, do not invite your friends, your brothers or sisters, your relatives, or your rich neighbors; if you do, they may invite you back and so you will be repaid. But when you give a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, and you will be blessed. Although they cannot repay you, you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous. - Luke 14:12-14
Another vision. Us, inviting the poor and the homeless. Us, renewing our vows before God. Us, celebrating our union before Your people. Us, together with you in the center. Us, depending on You.  Us, trusting you. Us, believing in You. Us, respecting You. Us, submitting to You.
