Wounded and forsaken
I was shattered by the fall
Broken and forgotten
Feeling lost and all alone
Summoned by the King
Into the Master’s courts
Lifted by the Savior
And cradled in His arms
I was carried to the table
Seated where I don’t belong
Carried to the table
Swept away by His love
And I don’t see my brokenness anymore
When I’m seated at the table of the Lord
I’m carried to the table
The table of the Lord
Fighting thoughts of fear
And wondering why He called my name
Am I good enough to share this cup
This world has left me lame
Even in my weakness
The Savior called my name
In His Holy Presence
I’m healed and unashamed
You carried me, my God
You carried me

As you listen to the words, imagine…He is calling you by name. There is a huge table and He has saved you a seat. He has forgiven all you have done and you are clean. You are weak and cannot take a step in the right direction so Jesus carries you in His arms and places you right beside Him. He loves you so very much.
Yes, you have been broken and you don’t feel worthy to sit at His feet. But better than that—He wants you to be beside Him. When you cannot do this life on your own, He carries you. And we belong because He says we do. You don’t see your brokenness anymore. All you see if a life full of freedom and joy and blessings far beyond all you can imagine. It’s all for you!!!
Yes, there will be fear, but in His presence it fades and joy takes over. Peace envelopes you as you share this cup with Him. His blood washed you and His body was broken and poured out so you could be whole. Take this to heart today and just rest in this hope.
If you feel far away today, all you have to do is call His name and remember He has already called you. He has a seat saved for you right beside Him. He will carry you if you’re too weak. He is waiting….

Let us pray: Dear Lord, thank You for giving us a place at the table with You. We are so undeserving yet You love us anyway and forgive us for all of it. You share a cup with us and we are completely satisfied for it is living water. Our brokenness is gone and we are made whole with You. Oh Lord, we love You so very much and we are amazed at the grace You bestow on us freely. We cannot thank You enough. Thank You for the joy and the abundant life full of blessings. For those far away, gently nudge them back and let them know that Your arms are open ready to take them in. In Jesus’ name we pray, amen.
