What comes to your mind when you think about the word, Hospitality? Jesus always seemed to know how to treat others by making them feel welcomed and valued. He understood hospitality. Let’s look at an example from Luke 19.
Jesus is looking to teach more about the kingdom of God. He runs into a man name, Zacchaeus, who has climbed up in a tree in order to get a glimpse of Jesus. What is the first thing Jesus does upon seeing this man in the tree? He calls the man by name. Then, he says, “Zacchaeus…come down! I must be a guest in your home today” (Luke 19:5). Isn’t it just like the Savior to not only make us feel valued, but want to spend time with us?
The Master wants to spend time with you, too. Take time, today, to enjoy the love of God found in Jesus Christ. Find a quiet place and call the name of Jesus.
