If you heard that Jesus was coming to visit you, what would you do around the home to get things ready? What place at the table?
What if he was going to stay. What room would you give him?
How about if he moved in for good? And rather than inspecting the dusting, insisted on cooking? Picked up a tea-towel? The laundry basket? A paint brush?
What if Jesus finished his stay with an invitation - come to my place? I've enjoyed being with you so much, I can't wait for you to show you around my home. It can be your home, too. I've been getting it ready for you. What room would you like? Here's your seat at the feast, near me. I know you only caught glimpses in that foggy mirror, but now...
O what a foretaste of glory divine…
