In 2 Samuel 9. We discover how this crippled grandson of King Saul, living in Lo-debar—a desolate wasteland—was pursued, carried, restored, and transformed by King David's grace, foreshadowing what Christ does for each of us. The vivid contrast between a Cambodian killing field and an orphanage called 'the home of grace' illustrates our own spiritual journey from darkness to light. Just as Mephibosheth saw himself as a 'dead dog' yet was seated at the king's table as one of his own sons, we too are transformed from wretched sinners to beloved children of God. The bread and cup we share aren't symbols of defeat but of victory—reminders that we always have access to God's sustaining grace. We learn that grace isn't a one-time transaction but a daily provision, like manna in the wilderness, sufficient for whatever we face. Most beautifully, we're reminded that one day what we celebrate symbolically will become reality when we recline at table with Jesus himself at the marriage supper of the Lamb.
