Teachable moments
Matthew 14.13-21In a dramatically political atmosphere, Jesus organises a meal for a multitude in the wilderness as a sign of compassion, and a lesson to the disciples that they need to look around them, see the need and meet it.
We explore the power of freely sharing bread as a symbol of food to sustain the body and soul. Everyone is invited as honoured guests to God’s abundant feast here and now. As we give thanks, and receive, it becomes a moment when God teaches us how to share ourselves openheartedly.
This week we explore hospitality that honours the guest.
