MOST INCREDIBLE INVITATION - Max Lucado

Invitations are special. To be invited is to be honored—to be held in high esteem!

The most incredible invitations aren’t found in envelopes, they’re found in the Bible. God invited Eve to marry Adam, the animals to enter the ark, David to be the king, Israel to leave bondage, and Mary to give birth to his son.

“Come,” he invited. “Though your sins be as scarlet, they can be white as snow. Come to me all of you who are tired and have heavy loads, and I will give you rest.” “Come,” he would say.

You see, God is the King who invites us to come.  Who prepares the palace and sets the table and invites his subjects to come in. His invitation for you, however, is not just for a meal – it’s for life!

 

From Mike: You read a devotional like Max has written and it appears it should be easy to love God and reject Satan and his temptations.. God has given us so much because He loves us. Satan has only given us pain. He cares nothing about us except that his desire is for us is to join him in hell. Our sinful desires and our humanism seem more attractive, That's why God us Jesus! Thank you God!
