Listen from:
This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them. Luke 15:2
UK 15:2{When we feel that "we are not worthy so much as to gather up the crumbs under His table," how precious are these words! When we remember that we were dead in trespasses and sins, we may recollect that Lazarus, the raised one, "was one of them that sat at the table with Him." When we come back from the battlefield, weary yet victorious, we may look for our King of Peace coming to meet us with bread and wine and His own priestly blessing, that we may be strengthened and refreshed by Himself.
Who shall tell our untold need,
Deeply felt, though scarcely known!
Who the hungering soul can feed,
Guard and guide, but God alone?
Blessed promise! while we see
Earthly friends must powerless be,
Earthly fountains quickly dry:
“God" shall all your need supply.
