Luke 19:5 "And when
Jesus came to the place, he looked up, and saw him, and said unto him,
Zacchaeus, make haste, and come down; for to day I must abide at thy
house."
Most people wait until
they are invited before coming to our home. They don’t want to impose or
presume upon our hospitality.
Others are the drop-in
types who come over when it’s convenient for them with no regard for what we
might be in the middle of doing. The first time it happens, we will probably
stop whatever we were doing in order to entertain and feed them, treating them
to our warmest welcome.
However, when people begin to be regular self-invited guests and come too often, we may need another way to greet them. Putting them to work alongside us as we continue to do whatever we had planned to do that day before they interrupted us is one way to handle it.
