Jesus asked a woman at His Table,
"Do You Love Me?" (John 19:2)
Yes, Lord she thought. You wore a crown of thorns and you were mocked in a King's purple robe, so I can be a royal child of GOD
(referencing Rev. 1:5-6).
The woman at the Lord's Table bowed her sweet smelling crown of flowers. Jesus whispered, "Do You Love Me?" (John 19:2)
She remembered His broken body on the cross
(referencing Luke 22:19).
She gazed into the Lord's Cup and remembered His blood poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins
(referencing Matt. 26:28).
The woman at the Lord's Table spoke in her spirit,
I am crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live but Christ lives in me
(referencing Gal. 2:3).
Jesus replied,
We know that we have passed from death to life because we love the brethren
(referencing 1 John 3:14).
Calling the woman's name, Jesus asked,
Deborah, Do You Love Me?
The artist said, Yes, Lord. You know I love You.
Jesus said, "Feed My sheep" (John 21:17).
The artist at the Lord's Table remembered a very compassionate story about Jesus and His sheep. Jesus set seven loaves of bread and a few small fish before a multitude of people who followed him and had nothing to eat. About 4,000 people were fed that day.
