This morning’s Gather was like a warm hug on a cold day!
It was such a sweet joy to welcome in our One City ladies for a beautiful morning of fun, fellowship, friendship and a really great message on hospitality.
Thank you so much to Rachel Tucker who gently challenged us to ask ourselves: Who is God asking you to make room for?
"Hospitality is a reflection of the heart of God".
Rachel’s encouragement was to stop waiting for the perfect home, moment, opportunity or circumstances, but rather open your doors and hearts as you are.
"Circumstances might not necessarily change, but someone might leave feeling: I’ve been heard; I’ve been seen; I’ve been loved; I’ve been carried to God through prayer and perhaps in some small way, they’ve experienced the welcome of God by you making room for them”.
“Show hospitality to one another without grumbling. As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace” 1 Peter 4:9-10
“Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and strangers, but fellow citizens with God’s people and also members of his household” Ephesians 2:19
