Room And Board
June 4, 2014
Read: John 14:1-11
On a recent trip to England, my wife and I visited Anne Hathaways Cottage in Stratford-upon-Avon. The house is more than 400 years old, and it was the childhood and family home of William Shakespeares wife.
The tour guide drew our attention to a table made with wide boards. One side was used for eating meals and the other for chopping food. In English life, different expressions grew from this usage as the word board became associated with food, housing, honesty, and authority. An inn would offer room and boardthat is, sleeping and eating accommodations. In taverns where customers played cards, they were told to keep their hands above board to make sure they werent cheating. And in the home, the father was given a special chair at the head of the table where he was called chairman of the board.
As I reflected on this, I thought about how Jesus is our room and board. He is our source of spiritual nourishment (John 6:35,54); He empowers us to live a life of integrity (14:21); He is our loving Master (Phil. 2:11); and He is even now preparing our eternal home. He promised: I go to prepare a place for you (John 14:2; see also 14:1-4,23). His grace has provided our everlasting room and board.
Christ meets our needs now and for eternity.
John 1317 records Jesus farewell speech, His last words to His disciples just hours before His crucifixion. Jesus spoke of humble and loving service (ch.13), of heaven (ch.14), of what it takes to be His disciple (ch.15), and of the Holy Spirit (chs.14,16). His speech culminated in a prayer for His disciples (ch.17).

I was going to take the test but none of the answers in the first question could even remotely be answered by me.
Jewelry? What is that.

Bless this door, that it may prove ever open to joy and love.
Bless these windows shining bright, Letting in God's heav'nly light;
Bless the hearth a'blazing there, with smoke ascending like a prayer;
Bless the folk who dwell within, keep them pure and free from sin;
Bless us all that we may be Fit O Lord to dwell with thee;
Bless us all that one day we May dwell O Lord with thee.

Good morning, Everyone.
Good morning to our
AWESOME
Military, our Allies, and their families.
Luvy? What a surprise.
Thank you, Luvy, for preparing
the Canteen for todays activities.
Sneaking in for a quick hello.
Hope everyone who lives in Nebraska is safe.
Heard they had some strange weather.
We're in for some of that storm later today/evening.
Things are warming up to summer temps.
Wish they could have stayed like this past weekend.
Need another cup of coffee.
Then, a quick walk thru the FR Canteen
before getting to work on a number of things
waiting for me this morning.
(can't people stop sending me work after I leave for the day??? UGH! how inconsiderate)
Please stay right where you are.
Keep the troops and their families entertained.
The Canteen is
Come on in and sit for a while.
There's always plenty of coffee, tea,
pancakes, conversation, silliness,
and plain old BS
