And why is Dean, who is truly homeless, at our table (and Gretchen was invited as well)? Luke 14:12-14 Well, here is my text to Brian as an explanation:
Noelle Writes:
I just wanted to let you know that 2 people I know have really been weighing on my heart because they have absolutely no one. They have nowhere to go this Christmas and are very sad. I probably should have asked you first, but I invited them to our brunch.
They will only be there for the brunch if they show up at all. You know them both, one is Gretchen from work and the other is Dean. I really felt Christ pulling on my heart to do this. And this is why:
Luke 14:12-14
Then Jesus said to his host, “When you give a luncheon or dinner, do not invite your friends, your brothers or sisters, your relatives, or your rich neighbors; if you do, they may invite you back and so you will be repaid. But when you give a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, and you will be blessed. Although they cannot repay you, you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.”
Thank you for always being so wonderful and so understanding!! And I can't wait for Christmas and for the lake! I love you so much and am so glad that you are my husband!
