No matter how you say it
the table is a universal image
of connection, fellowship,
blessing and giving thanks.
A place to rest, to dine, to write.
Go out to the roads and country lanes
and compel them to come in,
so that my house may be full.
Luke 14:23
There is a chair for everyone
who would come to the King's table.
Seek while he may be found,
call upon him while he is near.
Isaiah 55
