Saving is all his idea

Saving is all his idea, and all his work. All we do is trust him enough to let him do it. It's God's gift from start to finish. (Ephesians 2, the Message Bible)

The parable of the wedding feast
Meditation on image:
Urban living taught us that there is no free lunch. When someone we do not know well presenting to us a special offer at no cost, it is very normal to take a moment and think it twice. Look at the picture. In the right upper corner, inside the house tables are ready, a feast is about to start. People on the streets are pulled into the court to join it for free. But not all of them are willing. Their faces are intensified with anxieties. The bible tells us that God, the great mystery, moves in the world with great compassion, grace and freedom, and is passionate about sharing His Love with us. What is my response to this gift?
