Go out . . . and bring in here the poor and the maimed and the lame and the blind. — Luke 14:21

 Similar to this, sometimes people's wilful opposition to God's demands of surrender needs to be broken down by the painful setbacks of life. The parable Jesus told in Luke 14 serves as a reminder that adversity can be a benefit if it prompts us to accept God's invitation. Only the impoverished and underprivileged, according to him, accepted the invitation to the banquet. The others were very independent and preoccupied. 

Adversities are frequently required to help us determine what actually matters, whether our need is salvation or the growth of Christlike character. We pray that we will interpret them as God's tender invitation to join him at the "poor man's banquet."

By acknowledging our weakness, we make way for God's power. If we just believe, God will extend to us His immeasurable grace, but we won't be able to experience His love until we recognize our need.
