Fellowship

Abraham said, “Sirs, please stay a while with me, your servant. ~ Genesis 18:3 (ERV)

Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If you hear my voice and open the door, I will come in and eat with you. And you will eat with me. ~ Revelation 3:20 (ERV)

Christ Jesus, we need to have fellowship together. And I find it comforting to know that you want to be with me. Sometimes I have trouble being with myself. I find that there are things about myself that are very disturbing. But in spite of my problems you still want to come into my life and be with me. That is so wonderful! Once again, today, I accept your grace. Let's spend the day together. Amen.
