Who Dines With Us
Just the privilege of fellowship with God is infinitely more than any thing that God could give. When he gives himself he is giving more than anything else in the universe.

Last week we got personal. Weread about how he desires us to gain wealth through the things he gives, not what we can produce on our own. And how Jesus disciplines or reproves those he loves. This week we are Finishing off chapter 3 the letter to Laodecia and we are finishing his letters to the seven churches we Revelation chapter 3 verses 20-22
Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me. The one who conquers, I will grant him to sit with me on my throne, as I also conquered and sat down with my Father on his throne. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.’”

Dine With Me
This one thing I ask
One thing I desire
Is to be with you
II just want to be with you God
Because a thousand elsewhere
Is not as good
So I'm setting myself
Before you Lord
To meet with You
To dine with You
To agree with Your heart
To hear what You're saying
To gaze upon your beauty
To spend time with You
