DON'T BOTHER ME NOW

 

I'm busy.

 

Bug off and leave me alone.

 

            Can't you see I'm occupied?

 

A man once gave a great banquet, and invited many; and at the time for the banquet he sent his servant to say to those who had been invited, "Come, for all is now ready."

                                                Luke 14

 

Why does the call to the Banquet come at the most inopportune times?

 

God has a way of breaking into our self-absorbed lives at the worst possible moment.

 

We're swamped with a financial crisis.

We've found romance.

We're on our way to collect our winnings.

 

But they all alike began to make excuses.

            "I've bought a field…."

            "I've married a wife…."

 

Perhaps the opportunity will come again?

 

Don't bet on it.

Your seat at the Banquet Table will not remain empty.

If you don't fill it, someone else will.

 

"Go our quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in the poor and maimed and blind and lame."

 

This prophetic parable is being fulfilled across the earth at this hour.

 

Is it the beginning of the final gathering?

 

            Only God knows.

 

But this much is for sure:

           

            This is not a time to be "too busy."
