The Kings Covenant

Progress is being made on the physical throne and it seems that as the project takes shape the guys are becoming more and more connected to it. I am seeking the same results for the throne each guys is constructing in their own heart, but it's tough to say at this point what is going on in there.
Tonight we talked about The Kings Covenant. Each guy wrote out a covenant, but not one they would attempt to keep but the promises an covenants that the King has made with them. Like the covenant of salvation, or the covenant of joy and peace, or the covenant of grace. I asked them to post them on the wall so that we could see how each of us understands Gods role in our lives and then be able to encourage each other in digging deeper or in living according to the kings promises to us.
There was some decorative wood burning, turning, framing, and teamwork. It's an awesome time of fellowship that I hope they won't soon forget!
The throne is a symbol of the effort it takes to build a worthy place for the King in our hearts. It's wood, glue and screws, but it is also a gift to our King and each guy has commited that just as in our hearts the only one who sits on the throne is the King so no one shall sit on this throne but the King!
