This is the Lord for whom we have waited; let us be glad and rejoice in his salvation.
--Isaiah 25:9b
It's best to read the entire passage. (See Isaiah 25:6-9). When all is said and done, there's going to be a huge feast. God and His people are going to have a celebration to end them all. Or is it to begin them all? Death, tears, disgrace -- all of that is gone. God will host the family reunion!
When you come to the Lord's Supper, you get a foretaste of it. Every time you gather to eat with family and friends, you have hints of it. We're all on our way to the mountain and to the feast prepared for those who have loved the Lord's appearing. The risen One has cleared the way!
