Day 225

SOCIABILITY

On the third day a wedding took place at Cana in Galilee. . .

and Jesus and his disciples had also been invited to the wedding.

John 2:1-2

FROM THE FATHER'S HEART
My child, I did not create you to live alone. All around you I have placed divine appointments—people to love, people with needs. Do you have room in your heart for others? Do you know what to say when you walk into a crowded room? Some are skilled in drawing out the best in others, while others shrink in terror at the thought of speaking the first word to a stranger. People need the Lord, My child. And I need you to tell them about Me.  I'll give you the words—and sociability, too.

A GRATEFUL RESPONSE
Wherever people flocked together, Lord, You made room in Your heart for them. Meeting needs, touching lives, changing hearts, You spent time with all of them, no matter what their status, background, or race. Lord, if You loved and needed people, so do I. Your sociability encourages me to make others a priority. Thank You for caring.

SIMPLE TRUTH

Jesus' welcome mat is always out.
