Dinner with Jesus
By Unknown - Submitted by Mara Fonseca
There is a beautiful story about a woman who heard a knock on her front door and went to see who it could be. When she opened the door no onewas there except for a letter addressed to her on her door mat. When she opened it, she found a note from Jesus saying that he was coming over for dinner. She became frantic for she didn’t have anything to eat and was having financial difficulty. She was able to find a few dollars in her cookie jar and walked to the nearest grocery store to pick up whatever she could afford.
On her way to the store, she encountered a man shivering in an alley way asking if she could spare any change for a cup of hot coffee. His look of desperation tugged at her heart and she gave all her money and her coat so that he could get something to eat and stay warm. In tears, she walked back home knowing that she had nothing to serve Jesus for dinner. What is she going to serve? What will she say to him?
As she walked to her doorstep wiping the tears off her face and praying for guidance, she found another letter from Jesus. In the letter Jesus said: “Thank you for the coat and the delicious meal. I will not go to sleep hungry tonight, and I will stay warm in the streets.” The woman smiled knowing that she had served Jesus well.
