Thought for the week

Some Dunedin families have an international student staying with them. We haven’t (at least not yet), and I can’t quite imagine what it would be like. Is it like having a visitor, so you try to keep the house a bit tidier, and everyone on their best behaviour? I guess the student becomes one of the family, but how quickly does that happen?
In his travels Jesus sometimes stayed with friends, like Martha and Mary. What would it be like if Jesus came to stay at my place? In what ways would I behave differently? And what if he came to my house to live, not just to stay?
“Jesus replied: ‘If anyone loves me, they will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them.’”
John 14 v 23
