Pause

No matter how you receive it—email, snail mail, hand-delivered, or face-to-face—there’s nothing like getting an invitation! It means somebody who knows you wants to hang out with you, spend time with you, and get to know you better.

God has an invitation for you as well. It means pretty much the same thing: God wants to spend time with you and wants your relationship to grow.

This invitation comes from within. Take a little time now to accept it.

Listen

For he looked forward to the city that has foundations, whose architect and builder is God.

Hebrews 11:10

Think

Abraham received a special invitation from God and lived in a tent for a long time. Really? See, Abe was waiting on God’s leadership. What about you? What are you waiting on?

Living in a tent for so long taught Abraham that he could trust God. Living in a tent increased Abe’s hope for a house with a real floor.

So, trust God to take you from where you are to something better. Zip up that sleeping bag; a real bed is on the way! Toss out that water bottle; a water cooler is on the way! Abe trusted big time. God invites you and me to do the same!

Pray

God, thank you for the invitation. Today I promise to trust in you like I never have before, knowing your blessings are more than I can imagine. Amen!

Go

Oh, you have most definitely been invited!
Invited to join God in the good things God is doing.
Invited to walk alongside other believers in the Way.
Invited to live life to its fullest
As you follow Jesus—who invites everyone!
