16th Sunday…The Hospitality of God

July 23, 2019 by

 

Both readings are about hospitality. God’s and ours. In Abraham, we see God’s. He welcomes the stranger and feeds them and cares for them.  That is how God is with us. We are never turned way, but welcomed. He never lets us go hungry or in pain; he feeds and soothes us. Mary shows us the posture of being hospitable to God. We open our hearts to him and let him in. Martha got wrapped up in the details and forget to be hospitable. Mary saw what was in front of her and opened her heart. May this week be a week of hospitality. May we allow ourselves to experience God’s hospitality and be hospitable to God in our hearts and lives.
