Today’s reading is Luke 13:1-14:35.

Luke 14:21-23 really got my attention today: “Then the master of the house became angry and said to his servant, ‘God out quickly to the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in the poor and crippled and blind and lame.’ And the servant said, ‘Sir, what you commanded has been done, and still there is room.’ And the master said to the servant, ‘Go out to the highways and hedges and compel people to come in, that my house may be filled.’”

This comforted me because it reminded me that there is room for me at Christ’s table. It further comforted me because to get an invitation I learned that I don’t have to be wealthy, healthy, popular, praiseworthy, or anything else. Jesus wants me at His table no matter who I am or what I’ve done. 

Today, I’m going to see what I can do to get closer to Him and feast with Him.

Keep the faith and keep reading,

ELC
