In this powerful discussion on hospitality, we're reminded of its transformative power in our spiritual lives. The story of Mary and Martha from Luke 10 takes center stage, highlighting the importance of prioritizing our relationship with Jesus above all else. We're challenged to consider: are we too busy 'preparing' that we miss out on sitting at Jesus' feet? This lesson encourages us to open our homes and hearts, not just for the sake of hosting, but as a means of creating space for Christ's presence. The fascinating insight that the Greek word for hospitality means 'love for strangers' invites us to see hospitality as more than just entertaining – it's an act of love that reflects God's heart. As we ponder this, let's ask ourselves: How can we make our homes and lives more welcoming to both Jesus and to those who don't know Him yet?
