Invitations

You would expect invitations to the best-of-the-best. Those you wish you could act like you know. Those that, in your heart of hearts, you know you will Never meet, or be a part of their world. Yep, that's what you'd expect. He is God, after all.
I love this part. Who is actually on His list. Those He sends a summons to.
“Come to Me all who are weary and carry heavy burdens...” Matthew 11:28 NLT
“I am the Bread of Life. Whoever comes to Me will never be hungry again. Whoever believes in Me will never be thirsty. “ John 6:35 NLT
“...whoever comes to Me I will never drive away. “  John 6:37 NIV
We are urged, by Jesus Himself, to come to this lavish spread of His grace, if we are on the not-so-great scroll.
It's not-so-great to be weary, worn out, tired.
It's not-so-great to be burdened, heavy-ladened, carrying a too-big load.
It's not-so-great to be hungry. Or thirsty.
Yet, if you are any of those things, you have received a bidding to come. In fact, anyone who just plain wants-to, are included in that lineup.
Whoever.
Not really a directory of who's-who, is it? That's not a record of la-di-da or oh-my or can-you-believe-it? Nope. It's a tally of you. Me. The druggy down the street.
Here's my favorite part: no matter who comes, He will never cast them out, send His personal bouncer to muscle them out the door or reject them. N. E. V. E. R.
So, not only do you and I have a personal, intimate proposal to come, it doesn't matter how we arrive, what our appearance is, or the state of our hearts, His response is always the same: “Welcome! I'm so glad you came!”
Now, that's my kind of invitation!
