And I've brought brightly colored linens home from my travels so I can tell the story of the amazing people I've met along the way. Hospitality, though, has another side, the surprise side. It turns out that I'm terrible at being a guest. I actually had a friend once grab me by the wrist and bring me back to the dining room so I would stop washing her dishes. I rarely allow myself to be the recipient of the service of others because that level of vulnerability might remind me that I might actually need someone to take care of me from time to time. Jesus shows us this night that if we are going to share hospitality without condescension, then we first have to allow ourselves to be the guest in someone else's home.
