The Chimney in Dallas, TX is one of my favorite French restaurants. I don't know if it still exists, but I love that place. It was DIVINE when Jimmy and I lived in Dallas. The veal was cooked to perfection. The vegetables were exquisite. The sauces......well......what can I say! They tickled the pallet until I would squeal! And the bread? Filled my belly and warmed my heart. Then add a glass of suitable wine and the perfect desert.....one was in HEAVEN! It was truly a gift from God!!!!!!
You know....that is what the gospel of Jesus Christ is like. When Jesus told the disciples to feed the 5000, He did so because he had compassion for them. He saw their need - their true need, not just the physical hunger in their bellies. But their true need and wanted to give them not only their physical need but the BEST of what they REALLY needed. HIMSELF! He filled them and satisfied them and even had leftovers. He is like a fine French meal that is exquisite in every way. Delighting every part of our senses. He meets our needs and fills us. He is perfect, warms our hearts, suitable for our needs and can satisfy us completely. And desert? Well.....eternal life in HEAVEN of course!
Dinner anyone?
