Our souls are like a room - they can become full of stale air – yes, it’s time to open the doors and windows! How? Pray of course, number one but, after that, how about stepping out of our comfort zone, try to make friends with those perhaps who will never ‘repay’ us, our heart reaching out to those not of our type who (we think) can give us nothing in return.
We find … the cobwebs, the dust, the musty air are being blown away. And God, in any case, will meet us and, in His time, repay.
Then Jesus said to his host, “When you give a luncheon or dinner, do not invite your friends, your brothers or sisters, your relatives, or your rich neighbours; if you do, they may invite you back and so you will be repaid. But when you give a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, and you will be blessed. Although they cannot repay you, you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous. Luke 14: 12-14.
