A Seat at the Table

Have you ever felt like you had to work for a seat at the table? Have you ever stayed late, hoping the boss would notice? Have you ever volunteered for one more thing so people would think well of you? Have you ever kept score, quietly, in the back of your mind, of everything you've done for the church, for your family, for God? And have you ever wondered whether it was enough? God has blessed us. He has chosen us. He has adopted us. He has accepted us and that is all that matters.
