Recently I attended a six-day conference in Syracuse, New York.
The conference is related to the campus ministry which I have
worked with for the past fourteen years.

During one of the times of worship (we had lots!) I was enjoying
the Lord's presence.  All of a sudden I saw before me a huge table
set up for a banquet -- the Wedding Feast of the Lamb.  I spent some
time looking over the HUGE table.

I began to notice that whichever seat I happened to be standing behind,
as I made a tour of the table, seemed to be the "seat of honor", right
next to the Bridgegroom Himself.  So, wherever anyone sat at the table,
they were next to Jesus, and seemed to have His undivided attention.  It
didn't make sense HOW this could be so, but that is the way it was.

I found a seat with my name on the nameplate, a beautiful gold-embossed
nameplate.  I sat down, and because I seemed right next to Jesus, at
first I was very shy, and reluctant in conversation.  But Jesus was a
gentle, compassionate and humorous Host, and soon we began to converse
freely.  (It came to me again that even while I was His center of attention,
others at THEIR seats were getting the same undivided attention)  After a
while my polite, a bit stiff, posture became relaxed and I enjoyed our
conversation.

Fingering the nameplate with my name on it, I asked the Lord why there
were nameplates, since where ever anyone sat they were next to Him
anyways.

His reply was:  "The nameplate is not for Me, I know who you are and
your place by Me very intimately and it is important to Me.  But the
nameplate is for YOU, that you would know how I have a place set for
you, and am anticipating your attendance at My feast!"

Then the vision ended.

I just wanted to share this with you all  as a word of encouragement!
