The mystery of an omnipotent God who sends messengers to invite guests to a wedding rather than command by force speaks volumes about Him. He has all power, yet He invites - and His invitation is: "Come to the wedding of My Son and His Bride"; He loves romance, love, and beauty. He is the Creator and Sustainer of All Things, and yet He delights when humans play a role in shaping reality, culture, and the world around them. His name is "Wonderful"; thus every king should joyfully submit to His leadership; yet He is also "Counselor": He comes alongside to serve. -David Sliker
