A man went camping with his friends. They went on a long hike, but they forget to take food with them. They were gone for many hours. The man felt like he was starving. He was so hungry that he started to feel weak and sick. All he could think about was getting back to the campsite and eating.

Food is very important to us. It keeps us alive! But there is one very important meal that we should be thinking about all the time. Revelation 19:9 calls this meal the wedding meal of the Lamb. “Then the angel said to me, ‘Write this: Great blessings belong to those who are invited to the wedding meal of the Lamb!’ Then the angel said, ‘These are the true words of God.’”

This meal will celebrate the wedding of Jesus, who is the groom, and the church, who is the bride. This meal will be the happiest and most wonderful meal ever imagined. People who have loved and faithfully served God will be there.

Our life on earth may be filled with suffering and sadness. We may feel tired and want to give up. But we need to keep our mind focused on God’s true words and on that great wedding meal. It will be the most satisfying and joyous meal ever. And most important, we will be with Jesus forever and ever and ever!
