This table is a reminder of God’s abundant provision. But we must remember what it is that He provides for at this table. Here He supplies your faith, and this bread and wine will nourish that faith, causing it to swell to proportions you cannot imagine. However, he does not provide for your doubt at this table. If your doubts come to this table and insist on being satiated, they will go from this table insisting that the meal is hollow because they are just as hungry after attending it as they were before.  

These doubts can be identified by their “But what if” nature. “But what if he flakes out three years after I marry him?” “I don’t know,” says the faithful friend, “that would be a very bad day I guess.” “What if I take that job and then botch it?” “I guess then you will have learned something new about yourself.” “What kind of counsel is that?” comes the rejoinder. It is the only kind of counsel you get when you ask questions based on doubt. The only food our Lord supplies is food for your faith. Questions about the facts on the ground are most welcome. Questions about what God’s promises mean, what to believe and do, are most welcome. Those are answered here. But your doubts, the only way they can come with you to this table is if you have brought them here to starve them. Come in faith and welcome to Jesus Christ.
